The final match of the 10th season of WBBL was played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Sunday 1 December during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. During this important match between Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat, 33 year old DeAndre Dottin became the victim of a very unfortunate incident. Diandra's bat, playing for Melbourne, got stuck on the pitch while running. Due to this she could not cross the line and Diamond Duck became victim. That means in the final match he had to return to the pavilion without playing the ball and without opening his account.

How did this 'accident' happen?

Brisbane Heat won the toss in the final and decided to bowl first. After this, Melbourne team came to bat but in the first 4 overs they lost two wickets at the score of just 23 runs. After this, Deandra Dottin came to bat at number 4. As soon as he came to the crease, an 'accident' happened to him in the 5th over. Haley Mathews, present at the other end, played slowly and ran easily for one run. On his call, Deandra ran but as soon as she placed the bat near the crease, it got stuck on the pitch. Brisbane's wicketkeeper immediately ran him out without any mistake.
