1968
A day that Malcolm Nash would rather forget. Bowling for Glamorgan against Nottinghamshire at Swansea, he was smashed for six sixes in an over by Garry Sobers, the first time anyone had managed the maximum off a six-ball over. With Nottinghamshire heading towards a declaration, Sobers was looking for quick runs. Left-armer Nash, who was experimenting with left-arm spin rather than bowling in his usual medium-pace style, had Sobers caught on the long-on boundary on the fifth ball but the fielder, Roger Davis, toppled over the rope still clutching the ball. In 1977, Nash was hit for 34 off an over by Frank Hayes, also at Swansea.[/quote:05537]
