On May 11, Priyansh Arya, an opener for Punjab Kings (PBKS), made IPL history by becoming the first player to hit a six off the first ball of a match twice. Arya achieved this remarkable feat against Delhi Capitals’ left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala. He previously hit a six off the first ball against Chennai Super Kings’ Khaleel Ahmed in Mullanpur last year. This unique accomplishment sets Arya apart, as only four other players—Naman Ojha, Virat Kohli, Phil Salt, and Yashasvi Jaiswal—have managed to do it once in IPL history.
