Tim David Makes Cricket History with Record Six

Tim David blasted the longest six in T20 International history, helping Australia reach a strong total of 186 in the third T20 against India in Hobart on Sunday night. After Travis Head and Josh Inglis were dismissed cheaply, David came to the crease and quickly made an impact, racing to a 23-ball half-century.

Record-Breaking Six

David hit a massive six off Indian spinner Axar Patel that was on course to leave the stadium. The ball struck the Ninja Stadium sign atop the David Boon Stand, traveling an estimated 129 metres. This is the longest six ever recorded in T20 Internationals and the longest measured by Fox Cricket.

Fox Cricket commentator Mark Howard said, "That’s coming into the commentary box! It was nearly in the Derwent (River)!"
