These days, DDCA's T20 tournament, Delhi Premier League is being played in Delhi and in this league, many unknown players have stolen the show with their explosive performances. Now the most explosive innings of this league has also been seen, which came from the bat of a disciple of Team India's head coach Gautam Gambhir. Delhi batsman Ayush Badoni, who made a name for himself with his short but fast innings in Lucknow Super Giants in IPL, maintained his excellent form and created a stir by playing the biggest and most explosive innings of DPL. An innings in which 19 sixes rained from his bat.

On Saturday, we witnessed some amazing batting in the first Delhi Premier League being played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. In this match being played between South Delhi and North Delhi, Ayush Badoni's team batted first. Like every match, once again opener Priyansh Arya started batting aggressively as soon as he came. His fellow openers were out immediately but then captain Badoni started hitting with his bat. Both of them together made an amazing partnership of 286 runs and thrashed the bowlers of North Delhi.

Badoni hit a rain of sixes

Now let's talk about Badoni, who played such an innings, which is every batsman's dream but it is not easy to do so in T20 cricket. Badoni started batting fiercely and rained sixes as soon as he came. Badoni completed his first century of the tournament in no time. North's bowlers must have thought that his attack would stop after this but from here he became even more aggressive and also completed 150 runs. Finally, after playing a devastating innings of 165 runs in 55 balls, Badoni returned to the pavilion after getting out in the 19th over. During this time, 19 sixes and only 8 fours came out of his bat and the strike rate was also 300. In this way, he also made the record of the biggest innings of this league.

Big score of South Delhi

Not only Badoni, but Priyansh also completed his explosive century. This is his second century in this tournament. He scored 120 runs in just 50 balls, which included 10 fours and 10 sixes. The most special thing was that Priyansh also performed the miracle of hitting 6 consecutive sixes in a single over. He became only the second Indian after Yuvraj Singh to do so in T20 cricket. On the strength of the innings of these two, South Delhi scored a mountainous score of 308 runs in 20 overs. This team became the first Indian team to cross the score of 300 in T20 cricket.
