During the 14th match of the ongoing ninth season of the Big Bash League between Sydney Sixers and Sydney Thunder at the SCG, Sydney Sixers captain Moises Henriques hit a peculiar six off Sydney Thunder all-rounder Chris Morris after the match ended up in a super over.
After Sixers lost all-rounder Tom Curran on the first ball of the super over, Henriques scored 14 runs including a four and a six as his team put forward a 17-run target in front of the opposition.
On the penultimate delivery of the super over, Henriques pre-meditated to hit a ramp off Morris. However, his attempt saw him hitting the ball off the bottom of the bat for a six through the third-man region to amaze one and all.

Thunder batsman Alex Hales also hitting a six off Curran on the penultimate delivery of the match saw it taking another interesting turn. However, Curran’s fuller delivery was enough to prevent Hales from hitting another six.
Chasing a 150-run target, Henriques top-scored for his team with 41 (30) with the help of two fours. However, it was Curran’s 35 (17) with the help of five fours and a six which aided Sixers to draw the match. Having also registered bowling figures of 4-0-23-2 in the first innings, one can’t deny Curran being the hero for the winning team.
