Pollard, the Player of the Match, said: “I had to make a play at some point. I was really slow to start but I didn’t think it was a pitch where you could just come in and hit the ball, so I. had to really try and calculate and pick my bowler I’ve played against Rash a lot and he’s got me out a lot of times so I had to see what was happening but I knew the sort of line and length he was going to bowl. If he bowled full I was hitting straight and it was right in my arc, I had to get maximum. world-class bowler but this was just one of the days where I took victory.” (Kieron Pollard Smashes 5 Consecutive Sixes Off Rashid Khan In The Hundred League, Spectators Left Stunned- WATCH)
On the first ball, Pollard smashed Rashid over cow corner followed up by another biggie over long-off. Then the powerful hitter made it three in a row with one over the leggie’s head and then sent it over deep midwicket. No one expected such brutal treatment would be given to any bowler in that contest especially to a high-quality bowler like Rashid Khan.
