For bowlers, getting hit hard by a batter is a common experience, but it really stings when the hit is a massive six. That was exactly what happened in the game between Southern Brave and Welsh Fire when Glenn Phillips smashed a huge 107-meter six off Tymal Mills in Southampton.

‌Tom Abell’s decision to bat first proved effective for the Welsh Fire. Openers Jonny Bairstow and Stephen Eskinazi got off to a flying start, reaching 35/0 in just 20 balls. However, Bairstow’s dismissal didn’t slow down the momentum, as Luke Wells and Eskinazi built a strong 35-run partnership. But when Wells and Tom Kohler-Cadmore were out in the middle, the spotlight was on Phillips to lift the Welsh innings and showcase his batting skills. Additionally, Phillips rose to the occasion spectacularly mixing up his shrewd

On the 80th delivery, Tymal Mills bowled a full ball, coming over the wicket and pitching it on the middle stump. The ball was a pace-off delivery but Phillips judged it perfectly, creating space and unleashing a monstrous shot. The ball soared over deep mid-wicket and landed beyond the ground, near the parking lot. The six was measured at an astonishing 107 meters, and Twitter erupted in praise for Phillips’ extraordinary power.

What a shot!
