The Renegades beat the Stars by six runs in a tense derby on the Marvel Stadium however the chasing group had been let off twice when Joe Clarke and Beau Webster hit the roof and noticed the ball land contained in the 30-yard circle.

Under BBL guidelines, a ball that hits any a part of a stadium’s roof construction is scored as a six, main many to name for the reintroduction of the outdated rule the place it might be adjudged a useless ball as an alternative.

Renegades bowler Will Sutherland, who conceded the primary ‘six’, advised cricket.com.au that the rule must be scrapped.

“Definitely can it after they had two go their way. I let out a few expletives,” he stated.

“It was even for both sides but I’d like to think it would be a dead ball going forward.”

The rule initially thought-about solely the fastened beams of the roof and never the retractable sections, which Renegades skipper Aaron Finch stated was “hard to police”, earlier than it was modified to incorporate the entire roof.

“You’ve got these beams that hang over, they’re already over the boundary so if it hits that you should get six. If you hit it straight up and get six – honestly, I don’t know,” he stated.

Stars skipper Adam Zampa stated the rule was “bizarre”.

“As a bowler you expect to deceive a batsman and at least be in with a chance of getting a wicket,” Zampa stated.

“Maybe build the roof a bit higher.”
