Streaks spiralled in two very different directions as Laura Kimmince quickfire 23 helped the Brisbane Heat heap more pain on the Sydney Sixers in the ongoing Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) 2020 on Tuesday.

What do you call this shot? Did Laura Kimmince 🧸⛦just invent something?— Brisbane Heat (@HeatBBL)
The defending champion Heat registered their fourth consecutive win on Tuesꦍday, while the Sixers, who mis🅰sed the finale last season, slumped to fifth straight loss this season.
Coming out to bat with the score reading 85/4 in the 14th over and the run rate slowly climbing, Laura smashed the second ball she faced for a six, then a four, then another boundary with a reverse ramp off a no-ball as she took down Sixers medium-pacer Stella Campbell.
Kimmince had the commentary team questioning what to call her boundary shot. “I have never seen anything like that!” said one of the commentators.

No way! How on earth has👍 Laura Kimmince gotten this to the boundary?!𝓡
Play of the Day for sure!
