Hitting sixes throughout the inning is one and finishing a tight game by hitting sixes is another. Finishing a game is a very tough task since the batter has to keep a check on the run rate and keep himself calm while doing the job. 

Short formats are the formats where games generally go down to the wire and that's why teams specifically need a finisher, who can hold his nerve and smack sixes at will.

Match 10 of Vincy Premier League 2022 between Botanical Gardens Rangers and Fort Charlotte Strikers had a close finish. Botanical Gardens needed 21 runs to win in the last over of the T10 match. 

Andre Fletcher, who is also known as the 'Spiceman', was at the strike facing fast bowler Kirton Lavia, playing on 39 off 27 deliveries. No run was scored on the first ball but on the second, the ball went for four byes on a no-ball. The next two deliveries were dots and the equation read - Botanical Gardens needing 16 runs off 3 balls. 

Fletcher made use of the full toss and smacked a six towards the square leg. On the next ball, another full toss got smashed for a four towards mid-wicket and the equation now read six off the last ball.
