During match 10 of the Kabul Premier League, Sediqullah Atal from Shaheen Hunters displayed an astounding performance to smash seven consecutive maximums off Amir Zazai's bowling from Abasin Defenders. His remarkable feat led him to score an incredible 48 runs in a single over. Notably, this incredible display of power hitting equaled the record set by Indian batter Ruturaj Gaikwad, who had achieved a similar feat by hitting seven consecutive 6s against Shiva Singh in the Vijay Hazare Trophy last year.

The awe-inspiring moment occurred during the 19th over of the Shaheen Hunters' innings at the Ayobi Cricket Stadium in Kabul. Captain Sediqullah Atal faced off against Amir Zazai, the skilled left-arm orthodox spinner. The first ball, a no-ball, was effortlessly dispatched for six. Following that, Amir Zazai struggled under pressure, conceding five wides.

The stadium erupted with excitement as the fans were captivated by Sediqullah Atal's breathtaking display of power-hitting. Each six he hit against Amir Zazai was met with increasingly enthusiastic commentary from the commentators, praising the batter's exceptional skills.
