Former England captain Kevin Pietersen saw himself on the losing end as a club cricketer completed a grueling six-hitting challenge against Proteas pacer Kagiso Rabada. 

<p style="margin-top: 0px;" >The challenge, which took place as part of a video released on Pietersen&apos;s official YouTube channel, &apos;KP The Switch&apos;, was set to be completed in three rounds each with an increase in difficulty. The participant would have to clear the ropes on Kagiso Rabada&apos;s deliveries in &apos;easy&apos;, &apos;intermediate&apos; and &apos;impossible&apos; rounds. The person who succeeded in clearing the ropes across all three challenges would receive a reward of USD 1,000.</p><p>Initially, the challenge looked easy as Rabada delivered simple deliveries to the batter in the easy round. Four out of six participants qualified from the easy round. From there, just three made their way through to the final, &apos;impossible&apos; round.</p><p><b><font>Dylan Shocks Rabada in Final Round</font></b></p><p>In the final round, Rabada turned it up a notch with a range of yorkers, slower bouncers ,and wide balls to prevent batters from clearing the ropes.</p><nh-chunk-delimit />
