It is said that records are meant to be broken as soon as they are made and the same was seen in the 11th match of the Big Bash League. In the match played at Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney Sixers defeated Melbourne Stars by 8 wickets. The big thing is that the Sydney team achieved the huge target of 195 runs which is a record. For the first time, such a big target has been chased in T20 at Sydney Cricket Ground and that too because of James Vince. This England batsman came to open for Sydney Sixers and this player led the team to victory by scoring unbeaten 101 runs in 58 balls.

Amazing century by James Vince

James Vince along with Josh Philippi gave a fast start to the team. Both of them added 83 runs in 48 balls for the first wicket. Phillippi was out after scoring 42 runs in 23 balls but Vince remained at the wicket. This player also completed his century with the help of 12 fours and 4 sixes and also led the team to victory. Jordan Silk also made an important contribution to the team’s victory by scoring unbeaten 34 runs in 19 balls. James Vince has scored a century for the first time in the Big Bash League. He has scored 2088 runs in 74 innings in this tournament. Before this century, he had also scored 10 half-centuries.

Ben Duckett’s innings went in vain

Talking about the innings of Melbourne Stars, England opener Ben Duckett performed amazingly. This player played an innings of 68 runs in 29 balls. The big thing is that Ben Duckett hit 6 consecutive fours in his innings. The strike rate of the duck was 234.48. Maxwell also played an inning of 32 runs in 17 balls. Somehow the team managed to score 194 runs in 20 overs but this score also proved to be too much for Sydney Sixers. Sydney Sixers have won all three matches so far in this tournament. Whereas Melbourne Stars have lost all four matches played so far.
