WATCH: Trent Boult’s desperate attempt at stopping the ball will leave you in splits!
Trent Boult’s hilarious attempt at stopping the ball to reach the boundary is all over the internet now.
During the 9th match of the IPL 2021 played between MI and SRH while SRH were chasing the target of 150 runs set by MI, on the last delivery of the 5th over, David Warner slammed the ball between covers and mid-off. Trent Boult chased the ball and almost fell, but gathered his balance again. He kept on running and lost his balance again. He then finally dived to pick up the ball but couldn’t stop it from reaching the boundary.
WATCH:
Trent Boult had a hellish powerplay as he conceded 20 runs off his first 2 overs – especially his 2nd over got tonked all over the place by Jonny Bairstow. The nightmare continued on field when he had to chase the ball in the 5th over of the match in the bowling of Krunal Pandya.
But the Kiwi pacer returned in the death overs to clean up the Sunrisers tail and ended up with bowling figures of 3.4-0-28-3.
The Kiwi pacer who is also a reputed fielder, attracted memes after his fielding effort all over the internet.
This ‘Son of Sardar’ movie reference was bang on point!
