Melbourne Renegades star Nic Maddinson needed to be referred to as again to the crease on Thursday evening after he thought he was dismissed in probably the most weird circumstances seen within the Huge Bash.
Maddinson, travelling properly on 42 runs off 26 balls, hit Mark Steketee’s quick supply sweetly to tug in direction of the boundary because the Renegades tried to pile on the runs in opposition to the Brisbane Warmth.
Nonetheless, he was left flabbergasted when he circled to see the wickets lit up and one bail on the bottom.

Maddinson started to trudge off the bottom earlier than replays indicated that his ft and bat, in addition to the ball, have been nowhere close to making contact with the stumps when he performed the shot.
One way or the other, the bail had mysteriously dislodged of its personal accord.

‘All I can assume is when his again foot swivelled spherical and made contact with the bottom, it shook the bottom. Perhaps it wasn’t that secure, as a result of it regarded when he put that again foot down closest to the stumps, the bail fell off.
‘Who is aware of? Spooky.’
Maddinson went on to attain 87 runs off 49 deliveries to set the Warmth a goal of 167, with Sam Harper and Andre Russell scoring 21 and 35 runs respectively.
