Watch: Nottinghamshire Player Breaks Into Hilarious Celebration As Stuart Broad Joins In After Epic Run Out vs Middlesex In County Championships
There are certain moments in the game of cricket that tend to surprise even the most experienced of players who have themselves seen almost everything the sport has to offer. One such instance occurred when veteran Nottinghamshire player Luke Fletcher surprised even himself with a direct throw at the stumps which effected a crucial run out off Stuart Broad's bowling. The batter who got run out was Middlesex's Josh De Caires. The batter at the other end - Mark Stoneman - had played five consecutive dot balls as Stuart Broad created pressure. So, when Stoneman sensed an opportunity to take a single he went for it as he nudged a delivery directed on his pads on the leg-side inside the circle. However, the 33-year-old Luke defied the age barrier and pounced on the ball to inflict an epic run out.
