Rekha Gupta Praises Rishabh Pant's Historic 100 Test Sixes

Rishabh Pant plays cricket for India.

In cricket, a 'six' is a special hit that sends the ball flying over the boundary for six runs.

Pant just reached a very special number: 100 sixes in Test cricket, the longest form of the game.

He is the first Indian player ever to do this, and he got there faster than anyone in history.

His team was playing Sri Lanka in the city of Galle.

During the match, Pant scored 66 runs and helped India set Sri Lanka a big target to chase.

Rekha Gupta, a leader in Delhi, congratulated him on social media and called him a fearless match-winner.

Only three other cricket players in the world have ever hit 100 sixes in Tests.

Cricket fans were excited to see Pant write his name in the record books.
