Leading the New York Lions, the former India batter Raina smashed Los Angeles Waves' captain Shakib Al Hasan for two sixes and a four in a single over, reminding fans of his batting prowess.
The encounter in Dallas saw Raina dominate the game, and one of the defining moments was when he stepped out to face Shakib, who had only recently played against India in a two-Test series.
Shakib, a world-class all-rounder and still active in ODIs, struggled to contain Raina's explosive batting.
In what can only be described as a power-packed over, Raina danced down the track to send the first ball soaring for six, signaling his intent. Not letting up, he hammered Shakib for another four and followed it up with a six again, delivering a blow to the Waves' captain.
Shakib, rattled by the onslaught, did not return to bowl again, having conceded 18 runs in his solitary over.
