Chris Morris showcases his football skills

This had happened in the very first over of the Sydney Sixers innings with Daniel Hughes on strike. On the penultimate delivery, Morris had bowled a length ball outside the off-stump as Hughes attempted to hit it through the offside. However, he could not time the ball well as it made contact with the edge of his bat and rolled on.

With no fielder there, the batsmen attempted a quick single but the tall pacer was quick enough to react as he made use of his excellent football skills to effect a brilliant run out. Meanwhile, Daniel Hughes was unfortunate to be at the receiving end because his bat had got stuck on the ground while being sent back to his crease by the non-striker.

''Terrific finish. It's a lovely finish by Chris Morris in the bottom corner. Excellent skills from Morris, the perfect start for Thunder'', said the commentators on air.
