During the 56th match of the ongoing ninth season of the Big Bash League between Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat in Melbourne, Brisbane Heat all-rounder Ben Cutting entertained one and all with his brief innings after he was sent to open the batting alongside Sam Heazlett (6).
On the first delivery of the fourth over, Cutting pulled a Will Sutherland delivery off the front over the deep mid-wicket area. While the sound off the bat gave early signs of the ball going for a humongous six, it landing on the third tier of the Docklands stadium confirmed the same.
Having hit another boundary on the following delivery, Cutting hit one more enormous six over deep square leg on the second tier.
However, Sutherland earned his revenge on the fourth delivery of the over after Cutting was found wanting in front of the stumps. The 32-year old player ended up scoring 27 (11) with the help of two fours and two sixes.
Having scored 65 (47) with the help of three fours and four sixes, all-rounder Matt Renshaw top-scored for Heat as they posted 154/7 in 20 overs after their captain Chris Lynn won the toss and chose to bat. Bowling figures of 3-0-30-3 made Sutherland the pick of the hosts’ bowlers.
It was an 87-run partnership for the fourth wicket between Renegades captain Aaron Finch (63) and all-rounder Mohammad Nabi (38) which saw them sealing the chase in the last over.
