Constas out on zero
Sam Constas took the field a day after joining the Australian team. His team, the Sydney Thunders, was facing the Sydney Sixers. Constas was out in the very first over of the match. He was bowled by left arm spin bowler Akil Hussain. Constas could not even open his account in the innings of 3 runs in 3 balls. This was only the second T20 match of his professional cricket career.

That’s why Akeal Hosein is one of the best in the business!
