'It went there' ... George Bailey shows the umpires where the ball really went. Source: Hamish Blair / News Limited
One of the biggest shots seen in this year's KFC T20 Big Bash League was hit by Aaron Finch on Wednesday night.
The only problem was, it counted for nothing.
Finch's massive stroke over mid-wicket off the bowling of Hobart Hurricanes quick Doug Bollinger was sailing towards the top-tier of Etihad Stadium when it struck a horizontal pylon hanging from the roof.
Video and still footage appears to show that the pylon is just about in line with the boundary rope, but that didn't stop the umpires from calling a dead-ball, meaning Finch didn't get any runs for the massive shot and the ball had to be rebowled.
It didn't seem to bother the Melbourne Renegades skipper too much, as he went on to top-score for his side and lead them to their third-straight win, downing the Hurricanes by seven wickets.
After the game, Finch said he was happy for the rules to stay as they are.
"It's good that it's one way or the other," he said.
"There's no 'Was it over the line or wasn't it?'
"It's good that they're consistent with the rule."
The top-scorer for Hobart, Ricky Ponting, also provided some spectacular vision for those at the game and fans watching on Fox Sports, but for completely different reasons.
The former Australia captain had just hit a towering six over cover when he went for an audacious reverse sweep against none other than legendary spinner Muttiah Muralidaran.
Unfortunately for Ponting, he missed the ball completely and was clean bowled.
