New Zealand's Kyle Jamieson equals Michael Clarke’s world record in Test debut innings

New Zealand’s tallest cricketer Kyle Jamieson is without a doubt having a good day on the field. He had earlier impressed everyone on his ODI debut for the Black Caps against India where he knocked 25 runs while also scalping two wickets in the game.

He was named the man of the match for his overall display. In the third ODI, he scalped one wicket. The lanky cricketer also made his Test debut against the men in blue where he made a prompt impact on the field as he equalled the world record for most sixes hit in debut Test innings.


The 25-year-old equalled former Australia captain Micheal Clarke’s world record for hitting most number of maximums in his maiden Test innings. Kyle Jamieson attained the feat by smashing four sixes during his knock of 44 off 45.

Not only did Kyle Jamieson added flesh to the scoreboard but also ripped through the defence of Indian batting line-up where he picked four wickets. He bowled three maiden overs, giving away 39 runs and went on to register his career best 4/39.
