Dan Christian Hits 117m Six for Hobart Hurricanes in Big Bash at Gabba

Dan Christian has hit one of the biggest sixes you'll ever see.

In the Hobart Hurricanes' Big Bash match against the Brisbane Heat at the Gabba on Tuesday, the Australian batsman launched a rocket over midwicket and out of the ground in the 19th over.

He was pretty impressed with it himself:

Spare a quick thought for bowler Luke Feldman, who watched his delivery sail over the grandstand, before watching that piece of 117-metre brutality again.

Twitter was quick to heap praise on the 32-year-old batsman:

Christian's 56 off 24 balls contained four sixes and three fours as the Hurricanes posted 194/4 in their 20 overs.
