Watch: 'Heaviest Cricketer' Rahkeem Cornwall's Epic Bat-Drop Celebration After 45-Ball Century

Rahkeem Cornwall, often called the 'heaviest cricketer', is now a well-known face in world cricket. Standing at a height of close to 6 feet five inches, Cornwall's physical presence on the cricket field is a much talked about affair. The West Indies cricketer has played 10 Test matches too. On Sunday, Cornwall grabbed everyone's attention with a 45-ball ton for Barbados Royals against St Kitts And Nevis Patriots in a Caribbean Premier League (CPL) match. He stayed retired not out on 102* off 48 balls. The Royals won the match by eight wickets as they successful chased down a target of 221 with 11 balls remaining.

Rahkeem Cornwall's reaction also was unique after hitting the ton. He dropped his bat after scoring the ton.
