BBL 2016/17: Top 5 moments from the Hobart Hurricanes vs Sydney Thunder clash

#4 Miserly Fawad presents his case

Talented leg-spinner Fawad Ahmed presented a strong case for his inclusion in the Australian side for the tour to India with a canny spell of leg spin bowling. With the batsmen looking to go big in search for quick runs, he bowled beautifully, conceding just 19 runs off his 4 overs to put the brakes on the Hurricanes’ scoring rate.

It rarely happens in a T20 innings that a spinner’s spell goes boundary-less and today was one such time. A testimony to Fawad’s miserly spell was the fact that the Hurricanes batsmen couldn’t hit him for a single boundary in his spell and this went a long way in ensuring that their total was restricted to a manageable 161.
