New Delhi: South African star Hashim Amla secured his maiden unbeaten T20 century to help Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) post a mammoth 198/4 against Mumbai Indians in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017 match at the Holkar Cricket Stadium on Thursday.
Playing shots that would delight the purists, Amla spanked all the Mumbai Indians bowlers en route his unbeaten 104 off 60 balls, which included as many as six sixes apart from eight boundaries.
In fact five of the half dozen sixes were hit off Sri Lankan slinger Lasith Malinga (0/58 in 4 overs). (IPL 10, KXIP vs MI - As it happened | Points Table)
One of those hits was a gigantic maximum out of the stadium, much against the reputation of the Sri Lankan great.
Earlier, MS Dhoni had hit a towering six on top of the stadium roof, that to on a Yuzvendra Chahal (spinner) delivery.
