During the match for the 6IXTY tournament, Russell scored 72 runs off 24 balls, which contributed to his team’s victory by three runs.
Andre Russell, an all-around player for the West Indies who is known for his tremendous hitting, demonstrated once again why he is valuable on Saturday. Trinbago Knight Riders’ Russell hit 72 runs off 24 balls in their 6IXTY tournament game against St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots, which contributed to his team’s victory by three runs. The match was part of the 6IXTY tournament.
The Caribbean all-rounder’s six sixes in a row were the night’s most memorable moment since they dramatically swung the momentum of the game in TKR’s favour and made it the primary highlight of the evening. When they were given the opportunity to bat first, TKR made the most of the situation and didn’t leave anything to chance in order to rack up a significant score.
During the seventh over, which was bowled by Dominic Drakes, Russell blasted the first six on the third delivery and also despatched the next three deliveries for the same result, bringing up his half-century in just 17 balls. This was accomplished during the over.
When Jon-Russ Jaggesar stepped in to bowl the eighth over, Russell showed no mercy to him and hammered sixes on the first two balls he faced, bringing his total for the over up to six sixes. After that, he proceeded to hit a boundary on the third ball he faced. At long last, St. Kitts were able to let out a sigh of relief when Duan Jansen managed to catch Russell attempting to hit the penultimate ball of the over.
In the 6IXTY, each batting team has six wickets instead of ten in the other formats, and the batting teams have the ability to “unlock” a floating third powerplay over by hitting two sixes in the first two overs of the powerplay. In the other forms, ten wickets are given to each batting team.
The ends will not be changed during the bowling of the next five overs by either team. After each round, there will not be a change in who starts on which end.
In the event that each team takes more than 45 minutes to bowl their 10 overs, a fielder will be taken out of the game for the final six balls.

“Simply said, the goal is to pique the audience’s curiosity and build some excitement. Sometimes you just have to shift your perspective in order to see things clearly; it’s kind of like how golf is evolving right now.
This is directed toward a very different audience. We are focusing a lot of our attention on the younger generation.” Pete Russell, the CEO of CPL, was cited in the article.
“The beginning point for our plan is to complete four of these every year. You would prefer to have at least three properties in the Caribbean and one property in another location. We would want to play a show somewhere outside of the country; if I could take the Sixty to Las Vegas, that would be the ultimate prize “he remarked.
