Marnus Labuschagne stunned the crowd at The Gabba during Brisbane Heat’s clash against Hobart Hurricanes with a breathtaking scoop shot that sailed over the fine-leg boundary for six. The incredible shot came off the final ball of the 15th over, bowled by Hobart pacer Riley Meredith.
Facing a full delivery on the leg stump at 137.7 kmph, Labuschagne walked across his stumps, crouched low, and scooped it over the fine-leg fence. The shot, executed with perfection, left fans and commentators in awe as it resembled the trademark style of Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant.

The scoop six wasn’t the only highlight of the over. Just before the magical shot, Labuschagne smashed back-to-back boundaries on the fourth and fifth deliveries, racing to his half-century in just 31 balls.
Labuschagne didn’t stop there, going on to score 77 runs off 44 balls. This is now his highest-ever score in Big Bash League history. His innings was studded with eight boundaries and two sixes.
Labuschagne’s fearless batting and inventive shot-making were instrumental in Brisbane Heat’s total of 201/6.
