England's explosive wicketkeeper-batter Jos Buttler showcased his incredible power-hitting skills, helping Deccan Gladiators win the high-voltage Abu Dhabi T10 final against Morrisville Samp Army. Buttler, who came to bat at number four, finished the match with a six off Qais Ahmad's bowling.
The incident occurred during the seventh over of the Gladiators' innings when they were already on the verge of a well-deserved victory. Chasing 105, they had the most perfect start to their innings, with Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Nicholas Pooran stitching a blistering 51-run stand for the first wicket.
After Pooran was dismissed for a quick-fire 10-ball 28, impact player Rilee Rossouw departed scoring 12 runs off five balls. However, Jos Buttler remained unbeaten and helped his side breach the finish line without any hiccups, smashing a match-winning six off Qais Ahmad.
From over the wicket, Afghanistan's promising spinner Qais Ahmad bowled an over-pitched delivery right on the slot, inviting Buttler for an aggressive shot. The right-handed batter hammered a huge six over the cow corner, scoring the winning runs for his side.
