Team India won the T20 series against Zimbabwe. In the fourth T20, Team India won the series by defeating Zimbabwe by 10 wickets. The star of this victory was young batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal, who smashed Zimbabwe's bowlers and scored a brilliant 93 runs. Jaiswal did not get a chance in a single match in the T20 World Cup, so he was seen taking out his anger on the Zimbabwean bowlers. Not only did he thrash them in the fourth T20, but in the last match, he did something that was never seen before in cricket history. Jaiswal scored 12 runs on the first ball of the match.

In the last match of the series in Harare, Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza won the toss and decided to bowl first.

Yashasvi and Shubman Gill, who had made an unbeaten partnership of 156 runs in the last match and helped Team India win by 10 wickets, were on the field. Both were expected to bat in the same way and at least Yashasvi started in the same way. Sikandar Raza, who won the toss, himself came to bowl in the first over and what happened next not only surprised the fans but also entertained them.

Jaiswal created history

Sikandar Raza would not have thought that Jaiswal would do something like this with his very first ball.

The left-handed Indian opener created a stir by hitting a six on the very first ball. The Zimbabwe captain was also surprised and his surprise turned into disappointment when the umpire also called it a no-ball. That is, now Jaiswal got a free-hit and he used this opportunity well and hit a six again. In this way, Jaiswal scored 12 runs on the first legal ball of the match and became the first batsman in the world to do so. Overall, Team India got 13 runs from one ball.

Raza also took revenge

This start by Jaiswal once again raised hopes of a blistering innings but it could not happen.

After conceding 2 consecutive sixes, Zimbabwe captain Raza came back and bowled Jaiswal on the fourth ball of the over to give the first blow to Team India. Jaiswal was out after scoring 12 runs in 5 balls. Not only Jaiswal, but this time Team India also lost the wickets of Abhishek Sharma and captain Gill within the powerplay itself.
