That six is maybe the most insane shot I’ve ever seen a Lankan batter play

Beast of a batter!!
Aravinda De Silva in the last leg of his international career playing against Brett Lee in his prime with so much of ease..
Just imagine how good he was in his prime

Brett Lee bowling at 150 kmph and Aravinda flicking him for sixes
