It is usually a tough task even for technically string batters to clear the fence while playing a stroke from backfoot. Rovman Powell managed such heroics against Bangladesh as he lofted a ball in the air from his backfoot while facing Shakib Al Hasan and managed to clear boundary ropes with ease.

West Indies are up against Bangladesh in a three-match T20I series at home and they are leading by 1-0 at the present. After the first T20I was abandoned due to rain, the hosts managed to register a dominant win in the second fixture. West Indies posted a total of 193/5 in the first innings handing a tough target to the opposition. Bangladesh managed to score 158/6 and lost the game by 35 runs. Rovman Powell played an explosive inning for the hosts as he scored unbeaten 61 runs from 28 balls and one of his sixes was just brilliant.

Shakib Al Hasan was bowling the 16th over of the innings and he bowled a host and outside off delivery to Powell. The batter then rocked back and lofted the ball over long-off to clear him comfortably. The six travelled for a long distance and Powell made it look very easy in spite of hitting from the backfoot.

Just wow!
