The ninth edition of Australia’s premier T20 tournament – Big Bash League is going on currently. The defending champions, Melbourne Renegades certainly did not have the best of the start this season as they lost all of their first 9 games. Post that, the Renegades have finally found their rhythm.

They recently played against the Hobart Hurricanes which ended up in a high-scoring thriller. It was raining of sixes in the BBL match as Hobart Hurricanes put up a huge total of 190 runs in the first innings. Melbourne Renegades fell a little short of the target where both the teams scored eight sixes each in this match.

Meanwhile, during the raining of sixes, one of the sixes hit directly on the knee of the security guard. The guard stood there to guide the audience. He did not give proper attention to the ball and met with the accident.
