Watch: Rahul Dravid’s son, Samit, launched a huge six into the stands during a 2024 Maharaja T20 Trophy between Mysuru Warriors and Bengaluru Blasters at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

Samit Dravid, 18, bagged his first franchise T20 contract in the Maharaja Trophy, fetching INR 50,000 from the Mysuru Warriors. Turning up for his team yesterday against Bengaluru Blasters, he smacked a gigantic six, which caught the attention of many.

Batting against pacer Gneshwar Naveen in the seventh over, the teenager cashed in on a short-pitched delivery, pulling it high and handsome. The ball soared deep into the night sky, going into the stands.

Samit fell off the next ball for a run-a-ball seven, but his gigantic hit got everyone excited and talking.

In the match, the Warriors posted 182 on the boards for the loss of six wickets. However, the Blasters chased it comfortably with five balls and four wickets remaining. Bhuvan Raju’s 51 played a pivotal role in the run-chase.
