Stellar performance by Salman Nizar at KCL: 11 sixes in just 12 balls, taking the spotlight following Sanju Samson's feats
In a thrilling turn of events in the Kerala Cricket League, Salman Nizar, a 28-year-old athlete, delivered a spectacular performance for Calicut Globstars. His unbeaten 86 off 26 deliveries, marked by a blistering strike rate of 330.77, helped Calicut Globstars add a impressive 71 runs in the last two overs.
Nizar's impressive display earned him the Man of the Match award. His innings included a game-changing 40-run final over, where he hit six sixes off all legal balls faced, and a memorable 31-run 19th over, where he hit five consecutive sixes.
With such performances, Nizar is making a strong case for higher honours. He was recently included in the South Zone squad for the ongoing Duleep Trophy, and his name is now being whispered as a potential contender for national selection.
The match, which took place in Thiruvananthapuram, saw the Adani Trivandrum Royals falling short of the target of 187 runs. They were bowled out for 173, with three balls remaining.
Meanwhile, Nizar's fellow Kerala cricketer, Jai Rai, was also associated with the event.
Elsewhere in the cricket world, Sanju Samson, another Kerala-based player, sounded a warning for the upcoming Asia Cup with his 42-ball ton. Kerala is preparing for grand celebrations for this upcoming cricket event.
Interestingly, Salman Nizar is not just a cricketer. He is also a football player currently playing for Galatasaray. However, it's his cricket skills that have been stealing the spotlight lately.
The Asia Cup schedule has been revised, with UAE match timings updated. As the cricket season heats up, fans are eagerly awaiting more standout performances from Kerala's rising stars like Nizar.
