Serbian tennis superstar Novak Djokovic attended the 32nd match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2024-25 between Melbourne Stars and Melbourne Renegades at Docklands Stadium in Melbourne on Sunday (January 12).

Djokovic enjoyed the contest, which was studded with flurry of boundaries and wickets. However, a moment came in the match which left Djokovic and the crowd stunned.

During the eighth over of the match, Marcus Stoinis played a powerful shot off Tom Rogers' bowling. The ball went high up in the air, seemingly destined for the roof of the stadium.

To the astonishment of everyone, the ball was expertly caught at the long-on boundary by Kane Richardson, resulting in Stoinis’s dismissal.

The camera quickly panned to Djokovic, who wore a look of disbelief that resonated with fans across the stadium and beyond. His reaction went viral on social media.

Here’s the video:

Coming to the match, Melbourne Stars defeated Melbourne Renegades by 42 runs to earn two crucial points.

Asked to bat first, the Stars rode on Glenn Maxwell’s 52-ball 90 (4 boundaries and 10 sixes) to pile up 165/10 on the board.

In reply, Renegades’ innings folded for 123 in 19.5 overs. It was a listless batting performance as no one managed to touch the 30-run mark.

Mark Steketee starred with the ball for Stars, picking up five wickets by conceding only 17 runs in his four overs.
