Finishing with 220 not out in 159 balls, including a jaw-dropping 16 sixes besides 10 fours, Maharashtra batter Gaikwad hit a hapless Shiva Singh of Uttar Pradesh for 6-6-6(no-ball)-6-6-6-6 in the over, which also equalled the List-A world record of 43 runs in an over. Gaikwad's blitzkrieg powered Maharashtra to 330/5 in their 50 overs.

A swelling on his left wrist forced Ruturaj Gaikwad to miss four out of the six group matches in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy.

Double centurion Ruturaj Gaikwad blazed his way into the record books, smashing seven sixes in a 43-run over as Maharashtra outplayed Uttar Pradesh by 58 runs to storm into the Vijay Hazare Trophy semi-finals here on Monday. Opting to bowl, Uttar Pradesh were in for a shocker as the Maharashtra skipper went hammer and tongs at the Motera B ground during his knock of 220 that came off 159 balls, propelling Maharashtra to 330 for five.
