Watch: England's Bad Day Turns Worse As Star Gets Run Out In Bizzare Way vs Sri Lanka In Cricket World Cup 2023

27.10.2023 - 03:25 sports.ndtv.com

The England cricket team has had a poor outing with the bat on Thursday. During a Cricket World Cup 2023 match against Sri Lanka at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, England captain Jos Buttler won the toss and opted to bat first.

The side was bundled out for 156 with Ben Stokes being their best performer with a score of 43. While majority of the England batters found their own way to lose their wickets, the dismissal of Adil Rashid was certainly the most bizzare one.

Maheesh Theekshana bowled a wide ball down the leg stump to England batter David Willey. Kusal Mendis collected the ball behind the stumps and showed superb awareness to notice that Adil Rashid, the non-striker, was wandering out of his crease.

Mendis cashed in on the opportunity by hitting the stumps at the other end with a brilliant throw, catching Rashid short of the crease.
