WATCH: Jacob Bethell blasts a gigantic 96-metre six off Cameron Boyce to electrify the Melbourne crowd in BBL 2024-25

The clash between Melbourne Renegades and Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League 2024-25 went to its absolute best as Jacob Bethell had a special shot in store for the home fans to enjoy and put his team in a commanding position against Strikers.

Jacob Bethell smashed the ball into the stands

Bethell arrived on to the crease as Strikers invited the home side to bat first after winning the toss. After opener Jake Fraser McGurk and Tim Seifert were dismissed early, the responsibility of carrying the Renegades off to a respectable total fell into the hands of Bethell and Josh Brown. The two batters after some struggle, managed to sail through the Renegades total to 80 runs in the 11th over.

Seeing the two set batters, the Strikers skipper opted to test the two with some leg spin and Cameron Boyce was called to bowl the 11th over. Boyce restricted the Renegades batter with 4 dots but bowled a loose 5th delivery to Bethell. The middle-order batter wasted no time to punish the bowl and smacked it towards leg side for a towering 96-metre six. It was the first and only six of Bethell’s innings as he was dismissed later on scoring 21 runs off 21 balls.
