Watch: Bizarre Dismissal! Batter Given Out As Ball Gets Stuck Into Helmet Of Wicketkeeper

The game of cricket has beautifully evolved over the years. While on financial terms it has seen a great leap and is still rising, the performance of the players has also been developing at a rapid pace. Batting has become more innovative and impactful nowadays and so is the bowling to counter it. Fielding, another crucial part of the game of cricket, has also become advanced now. What could have been a sensational or eye-catching effort decades ago is a regular task now. Amidst all that, cricket never forgets to give us funny and bizarre moments, time and again.

Such a moment was witnessed during a European cricket match when a batter was dismissed in a bizarre fashion.

While going to try for a bit shot the batter got a nick on the ball that stuck into the hemlet of the wicketkeeper. The batter was declared out with the fielding team enjoying the gift with a laugh.

Talking about the world of cricket, Shafali Verma bullied an inexperienced Malaysian attack with a sparkling 39-ball-67 as India entered the semi-final of the women's cricket event at the Asian Games by virtue of better ICC rankings after Thursday's quarter-final was abandoned due to rain.

The match was reduced to 15 over-a-side affair and India scored an imposing 173 for 2, courtesy Shafali, skipper Smriti Mandhana's 27 off 16 balls, Jemimah Rodrigues' 29-ball-47. Richa Ghosh's 7-ball-21 cameo was like a cherry on top of the cake.

It was going to be next to impossible for Malaysia to even think of surpassing 100-run mark let alone chase the target, which was revised to 177 as per
