In the fourth match of the five-match T20 series being played against Bangladesh, Australia’s team has come out to save the honor. The team has already lost the series by losing three consecutive matches. Dan Christian hit five sixes in an over of Shakib Al Hasan in the fourth T20 for the Kangaroo team in the fight for respect. He just missed out on equaling the record for hitting six sixes in an over in T20 history.
