Watch: Glenn Phillips sought to break free from his self-imposed shackles by hitting three sixes and a four in the space of six balls during a 2023 Major League Cricket match between Washington Freedom and MI New York.
Phillips struggled to get going in his innings after coming out to bat at 45-2 in the sixth over. He had hit just one four in the 23 he scored off the first 26 balls he faced. He decided to attack Rashid Khan in the 17th over in an attempt to increase the scoring rate.

On the third delivery, he cut a wide ball outside off stump, past short third for four. He pulled the next ball over mid wicket to bring some momentum to the innings.
David Wiese also found himself at the receiving end of Phillips’ wrath. Phillips flicked the first ball of the next over towards deep square leg, and hit a powerful six to move on to 45 off 33 balls.
He was out two balls later, as Washington posted 160-6, a target MI New York easily chased down with eight wickets and 27 balls in hand.
