The incident happened during the 10th over of India’s innings when Zimbabwe skipper Sikandar Raza introduced leg-spinner Mavuta into the attack.
On the fourth delivery of the over, Mavuta bowled a half-tracker on the stumps to Riyan Parag. Parag smashed the ball for a gigantic six, which landed on the roof top at deep mid-wicket. Later reply showed the ball had traveled 107 metres.
However, the Zimbabwe leg-spinner Mavuta had the last laugh as he dismissed Parag in the 15th over of India’s innings. Parag made 22 runs off 24 balls, including one six.
