GO AND FETCH IT! LIAM’S MASSIVE SIX

-

WHILE playing for England in a Twenty20 against Pakistan at Headingley in July, Liam Livingston­e hit an astonishin­g six out of the ground and into the rugby stadium next door. Facing fast bowler Haris Rauf in the 16th over, Livingston­e smashed the ball straight back down the ground (1) over the newly constructe­d Emerald Stand (2). The ball kept travelling and landed in the middle of Leeds Rhinos’ stadium next door (3). The shot travelled a remarkable 122 metres, and Livingston­e’s feat drew comparison­s with Albert Trott — who remains the only person to have hit the ball over the Lord’s pavilion, doing so in 1899.
