The haste to take runs creates a lot of drama and action on the cricket field. European Cricket always produces some unique moments and this time around it was a hilarious incident. In a match of European Cricket League, batter’s actions left everyone in splits.
The incident occured in the last over of the innings. Batter at the non-striker’s end backed up too much and started sprinting for a run even before the bowler had bowled the delivery. He almost covered the three-fourth of the pitch and realized his mistake late. However, the bowler chose not to run him out and displayed a brilliant gesture in the spirit of the game.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the incident.
LOL!
Incredible backing-up from this lad 😂🏃♂️
