Cricket can sometimes present bizarre scenarios. While the sport has become much more professional with the advent of technology and video analysis, the margin of error has become quite less. The players too are aware of this. Also, with the emergence of T20 Leagues, even countries like Canada, USA, UAE, are starting to dream big in the sport. Even then, sometimes hilarious situations arise from the spot. In a video that has gone viral on social media, one such instance has come up. In the video, which is from an amateur level cricket match, things took a wrong turn when the batter got run out.
After a rather tame dismissal, the batter can be seen walking off the pitch. But in frustration he swings his bat wildly, but he flies off his grip to hit his teammate at the other end. The rival team is visible stunned at the turn of events.
