Chris Lynn Leads The Six-Hitting Charts In BBL
Stoinis is featuring in his 102nd BBL match, and he became the 6th player in the tournament to hit 100+ sixes. Overall, Chris Lynn holds the record for most sixes in BBL (208). He is also the only player to have 200+ sixes in Big Bash. Further, Stoinis is one of the few middle-order batters to be a part of this six-hitting list in BBL history. Here is the complete list of players with the most sixes in BBL history.
Stoinis looked in good touch as soon as he came to bat and timed every ball. He looked as if he will register a big individual score, but a change of bat didn't help the Aussie star all-rounder. Notably, his bat broke after a fiery Jhye Richardson delivery, which forced him to change his bat.
The change of bat didn't do any good as he got out on the very next delivery. Stoinis looked for a quick single during the Power Surge overs but fell short of his crease.
