The two Asian rivals always give fans memorable moments wheneverꦜ they meet. Sometimes, they become the talk of the town for their heated moments, and s﷽ometimes, they flood the internet with comic incidents.
On the third day of the Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka second Test match, a similar incident♚ took place. Bangladesh fielders got i🐷nvolved in a very bizarre incident in which five fielders ran after the ball to save a boundary. Soon after this, cricket fans started trolling Bangladesh players for their act.
Never seen before on-field decision-making
This fielding blunder was seen in the 20th over of Sri Lanka’s second innings. At that time, Sri Lanka were 90 for 6 with just four wickets remaining in hand, hoping for cemented innings from Prabath Jayasuriya and Angelo Mathews.
When Bangladesh pacer Hasan Mahmud bowled the second ball🌞 of his over, Jayasuriy🃏a hit it in the gully region, triggering five fielders to run after the boll to prevent a boundary, which they eventually did only to give a couple of runs to the visitors.
Here is the video:
