Carter achieved the rare feat on Sunday during the Super Smash 2019-20 tournament clash between Canterbury and Northern Knights at Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

With 64 runs needed from five overs, Canterbury’s chances of winning the match looked bleak despite having seven wickets in hand. The southpaw decided to take on left-arm spinner Anton Devcich in the 16th over and struck him for six sixes in a row, all of them hit on the leg side.

Leo Carter hit 6 sixes in a row and the @CanterburyCrick Kings have pulled off the huge chase of 220 with 7 balls to spare at Hagley Oval! 👏
