Howzat! - Six wickets in an over for eight-year-old

Not by the Playbook

Available for over a year

The legendary cricketers Sir Gary Sobers and Ravi Shastri are famous for achieving the rare feat in first class cricket of hitting six sixes in an over. In years to come, could New Zealand's Luke Marsh be joining them in the record books with his bowling feats? Eight-year old Luke is a pupil at Brockville school in Dunedin on the south island, and plays at the Kaikorai junior cricket club. Earlier this month, in a game against Taieri, he took six wickets in one over, for just one run. Caroline Barker spoke to Luke, and his mum Michelle.
