Shaun Marsh: Watch Renegades batsman pulls Jason Holder's ulta-slow bouncer for a boundary in BBL 10

Shaun Marsh: The batsman from Melbourne Renegades scored his 49th T20 half-century at the Carrara Oval.

During the 18th match of the ongoing 10th season of the Big Bash League between Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Sixers in Carrara, veteran Melbourne Renegades opening batsman Shaun Marsh scored his 49th T20 half-century to power his team to 168/6 in 20 overs after captain Aaron Finch won the toss and chose to bat.

With Finch scoring 39 (32) with the help of four fours, Renegades opening duo put together a 75-run opening partnership. Post Finch’s dismissal, Marsh took over to attack the opposition bowlers.

In what was his 19th BBL half-century, Marsh ended up scoring 67 (48) with the help of five fours and two sixes. While the 37-year old batsman hit some eye-catching shots, one of them came off Sydney all-rounder Jason Holder’s ultra-slow bouncer.

On the fifth delivery of the 14th over, Holder’s attempt to bowl a short slowed delivery saw him pitching the ball a tad too short. Marsh, who waited for the ball, had ample amount of time to pull it for a boundary.

Barring an opening partnersip, Renegades batsmen couldn’t really leave an impact at the Carrara Oval which saw them settling for far less than they should’ve ideally scored.

With bowling figures of 3-0-19-2, veteran Sixers all-rounder Daniel Christian was the pick of their bowlers.
