Absolute scenes of carnage ensued in the Pro Corporate League in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh (UP). As unbelievable as it may sound, the Meerut Kings have managed to do the unthinkable by chasing down a whopping 41 runs in the final six balls of the run chase. Such an instance of this kind has never been recorded in men's professional T20 cricket. Mathematically, 36 runs is the most a batting team can extract if six legal deliveries are bowled. But Meerut Kings' batters, primarily featuring Shubham and Anuj, shattered all records and unleashed hell on the bowling team to register an unbelievable win.

The Meerut Kings now have the record for scoring the most number of runs in an over in T20 cricket. The record was previously held by Samoa's Darius Visser, who scored 39 runs off Vanuatu's Nalin Nipiko in an over during the 2026 T20 World Cup regional qualifier in Apia. The legendary Yuvraj Singh was the first batter to smash six consecutive sixes in an over. His record remained intact for nearly two decades before being eclipsed by the Nalin Nipiko and the destructive batting duo of Merrut Kings.

The game went all the way down the wire with the Meerut Kings needing 41 more runs in the final over to taste victory. At this point, Meerut looked certainly out of contention and resorted solely to a miracle. With six wickets down, the bowling team was cruising along to a comfortable win. A left-arm spinner was brought on to finish off the job. His only job was to avoid extras. But after being hit for a six first ball, the bowler lost his composure, and the no-balls in his subsequent deliveries turned out to be disastrous for his side.

Shubham, while on strike, dispatched the first ball over long off for a six by effectively using his feet. His second six came off a long hop delivery. Shubham went deep in his crease and swung his bat hard to deposit it over long on for a massive six. His next six came off a waist-high no-ball, which he effortlessly dealt with by slogging it over deep mid-wicket. 

Halfway through the over, the equation was still very much in favor of the bowling side at this stage. With Meerut still needing another 22 off three, Shubham never looked like stopping. He made the most of the free-hit delivery by getting underneath a juicy half-volley ball and tonking it downtown for another six.  His finishing six came in the final ball of the over when he targeted the cow corner boundary and cleared it with ease by taking his side through to the final.

Such an onslaught left the bowling team dumbfounded and shell-shocked. Although such instances of brilliance are a rarity in modern-day cricket. However, when it does occur, it leaves ardent fans in disbelief.
