Corey Anderson slams a monstrous 102-meter six during MLC 2023 match between LAKR vs SFU 

San Francisco Unicorns (SFU) batter Corey Anderson clubbed a huge 102-meter six in match number eight of the Major League Cricket (MLC) 2023 against Los Angeles Knight Riders (LAKR) at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas on Wednesday, July 19.

The left-handed batter played an impressive cameo of 39 in 20 balls as San Francisco Unicorns put up an impressive total of 212/7 on the board after winning the toss and batting first. In the 18th over of the innings, Anderson took on LAKR pacer Andre Russell and slapped him for two consecutive sixes.

The second maximum, which came off a full and wide delivery outside off, was launched high over long-on and was registered as a 102-meter hit. Russell, who has had constant issues with his fitness, then walked off the field with the physio accompanying him.
