Rahul Dravid three 6's in a row

Three 6's in a row is not a unique feat. Yet there is something beautiful about this innings. For one reason, it was Rahul Dravid at the batting end and this was his first and last international T20 innings. This innings came on 31st August 2011 when India was on England tour. Very few had expected a classical batsman like Dravid, (a player who had faced most deliveries in test cricket) would go aerial route for three consecutive deliveries. Dravid's international T20 career lasted only for 21 deliveries but these three 6's will last in the hearts of Dravid's fans forever. Harsha Bhogle's commentary during the match added colors to this innings. For Dravid's fans, it is one of the most romantic innings he ever played. 'Ask him to walk on water and he will say okay,' Harsha Bhogle can be heard saying this in the commentary.
