It was Carter's heroics which helped Canterbury overhaul a challenging 220-run target with seven balls to spare. Carter remained unbeaten on 70 and his knock was laced with three boundaries and seven hits into the stands. The other batters who have achieved the feat in T20s, include India's Yuvraj Singh (2007), Worcestershire's Ross Whitely (2017) and Afghanistan's Hazratullah Zazai (2018). Significantly, Garry Sobers and Ravi Shastri had also achieved the feat however, that came in first-class cricket. (With agency inputs)
