PSL 2023: Pakistani batsman Iftikhar Ahmed has done such a feat on Sunday that he is being discussed everywhere on social media. The Pakistani cricketer reminded Team India's Sixer King Yuvraj Singh by hitting back to back 6 sixes in a single over. The special thing is that he did this feat on such a bowler who is going to hold the chair of Sports Minister of Punjab province of Pakistan in the coming days. The video of these six sixes of Iftikhar is spreading like fire on social media.

Let us tell you that the Pakistan Super League (PSL) is going to start from February 13. But before the start of the main season, an exhibition match was played between Quetta Gladiators and Peshawar Zalmi on 5 February. In this match, Quetta's score was only 148 runs in 19 overs. Wahab Riaz, who came to bowl the last over for Peshawar, gave only 11 runs in 3 overs and took three wickets. After that, in the last over, Iftikhar took Riyaz's class in such a way that his entire line length got spoiled. In the last over of the innings, Iftikhar hit Riaz for 6 sixes and scored 36 runs.
