There is some reason for every work. There was a motive behind what Meghalaya player Akash Kumar did in the Ranji Trophy plate group match against Arunachal Pradesh. But who gave them that objective? On whose advice did Akash Kumar become the second batsman to hit 6 sixes in an over in Ranji Trophy? Then he also became the first batsman to hit 8 sixes consecutively. And, within no time, he broke the world record by scoring a fifty in 11 balls.

On whose instructions did Akash Kumar carry out the blast?

Akash Kumar chose just one inning to accomplish all these feats. He played an innings against Arunachal Pradesh in which all these records were included. But on whose advice did he do this? The answer to this question lies with the coach of Meghalaya. Akash Kumar, who came to bat at number 8 on the advice of the coach, played a record-breaking innings.

Why did the coach give license to play fast?

Now the question is what was the motive behind this? Why did the coach give him a clear message to play fast? So the reason behind this is Meghalaya declaring its innings as soon as possible. Meghalaya coach wanted to declare the innings and put Arunachal Pradesh into bat. But, before doing so, he wanted his team's scoreboard to be 600 plus runs. With the aim of achieving the same score, he asked Akash Kumar to play faster.

Impact of Akash Kumar's explosive innings

Akash Kumar also understood the needs of the team and the intentions of the coach and played accordingly. As a result, all previous records were washed away. Not only this, after Meghalaya declared the innings at 628 runs for 6 wickets, Arunachal Pradesh's first innings was reduced to just 73 runs. And that team was forced to play follow on.
