Melbourne Stars skipper Marcus Stoinis has a great time on the field during the ongoing match against the Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League (BBL) 2024-25. The match between the two teams is being held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.

After Melbourne Stars scored 219 runs on the board, Mark Steketee started the ball with skill. The pacer has taken three quick wickets with the ball, removing Caleb Jewell, Charlie Wakim, and Ben McDermott.

But it is safe to say that Caleb Jewell’s wicket record goes to none other than Stoinis. The Melbourne Stars captain impressed in the field and chose one of the best matches of the season to send the batsmen on.

Mark Steketee gave a good length that goes well. Caleb Jewell tried to run to the infield but didn’t make good contact as he took it off the bat. It seemed that the ball could easily travel between them, and the batsmen would survive.

But Marcus Stoinis came up with a stunning effort as he raced back and put it under the water. He stretched out his arms as far as he could and held them with both hands. Then he was down with all his hands up to celebrate as his team celebrated the wicket.
