Ashutosh Sharma, playing as an impact substitute for Punjab Kings on Saturday, came up with a handy knock of 31 off 16 balls against Rajasthan Royals in Match 27 of the IPL 2024 in Mullanpur.

And the manner in which he slammed Avesh Khan for two sixes in three balls showed the audacity, and those hammerings even left Sanju Samon speechless behind the stumps.

The first of Ashutosh's sixes was nothing but brutal hitting with perfection, as Avesh bowled in the arc of him to get punished for half-a-dozen over wide long-on. After that, Ashutosh made room for himself before slamming Avesh elegantly over Riyan Parag's head for another six runs.
