Scott Boland gets second time lucky in one delivery

This had happened in third over of Perth Scorcher's run chase. Chasing a target of 181, hosts had already lost two wickets. When Mitchell Marsh and Josh Inglis were looking to rebuild for Scorchers, trdy struck once again, and that too at wrong time. 

On third delivery, Marsh had powerfully timed a fullish delivery from Boland. Even though it was a straight drive, ball took a leading edge of bat and offered a caught and bowled chance to bowler who tried his level best to attempt it. However, he was unable to grab ball in his follow-through as it clipped his fingers and went on to hit stumps.

What really stood out was that Inglis standing at n-strikers' end was outside crease when ball had made contact with bowler's fingers and hit stumps which resulted in his unfortunate dismissal. 

''Well off hand is it? It's on to stumps and it has been given. Would you believe it? Scott Boland in his attempt just to stop ball has ricocheted it on to stumps and Inglis is left stranded. This is disappointing for Scorchers. What a shot from Mitch Marsh! Hit firmly. I just question why Inglis is backing up so far?'' said commentators on air.
