Watch: Iftikhar Ahmed Smashes 6 Sixes against Wahab Riaz in PSL Exhibition Match. An exhibition match between Quetta Gladiators and Peshawar Zalmi was played at Quetta Stadium today before the start of PSL 2023.
The Peshawar Zalmi captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to field first. The Zalmi started well and dismissed Umar Akmal and other top-order batters early without giving away too many runs. Wahab Riaz was looking threatening with the ball.
However, Iftikhar was in a different mood than other Quetta Gladiators players. He played his own game and smashed the Zalmi bowlers all around the park. In the last over of the Quetta Gladiators inning, Iftikhar Ahmed went berserk and smashed 6 sixes in an over against Wahab Riaz.
