Christchurch: Canterbury batsman Leo Carter achieved a rare feat on Sunday as he smashed six sixes in an over to becoming only the fourth batsman to do so. In the 16th over of a T20 Super Smash tournament at Hagley Oval here, Carter hammered left-arm spinner Anton Devcich, who was bowling for Northern Districts.

It was Carter's heroics which helped Canterbury overhaul a challenging 220-run target with seven balls to spare. Carter remained unbeaten on 70 off just 29 balls and his knock was laced with three boundaries and seven hits into the stands.
