Something similar happened in Australia's T20 tournament Big Bash League. The match between Sydney Sixers and Melbourne Renegades on Sunday 13 December saw two very different styles of batting, one of which was so embarrassing that it is almost impossible to believe it.

The 10th season of the Australian T20 League BBL is going on these days and on the fourth day of the tournament, fans got to witness, from great batting to very poor batting in the very same match.
