Former CSK batter hits Rajasthan bowler for six fours in a row after five wides in Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 [Watch]

Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) batter Narayan Jagadeesan has grabbed the headlines with his explosive batting performance in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. Playing for Tamil Nadu in the knockout match against Rajasthan, Jagadeesan smacked six fours in a row off Aman Shekhawat's bowling.

The preliminary quarterfinal round of Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024/25 began on January 9 in Baroda. Rajasthan are up against Tamil Nadu, and they scored 267 runs in the first innings.

Chasing 268 for a win, Tushar Raheja came out to open the batting with Narayan Jagadeesan. Both batters started well, scoring 10 runs off the first over. Aman Shekhawat came in to bowl the next over and started with five wides.

Aman then bowled four deliveries outside off stump. Jagadeesan smashed them for four fours towards the off-side. The first ball flew over the first slip for a four, followed by a boundary towards point and then the third-man region and point again.

Aman then changed his line and bowled a delivery closer to his body, which Jagadeesan pulled for a four towards square leg. On the final ball of the over, Aman fired a short delivery towards the leg-side, but Jagadeesan flicked it away for a four.
