Watch - "Not Ideal": Carlos Brathwaite Costs Team 5-Run Penalty With Poor Fielding

Remember Carlos Brathwaite? West Indies' hero at the 2016 ICC World T20 Final, who hit four straight sixes to take his team home against England after his side needed 19 off the last over. That was his debut World Cup. Later that year, he also captained the West Indies team in T20I matches against India. He also played in the 2019 ICC ODI World Cup. After having played for several franchises in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Brathwaite is currently competing in the Vitality T20 Blast in England. He is leading Birmingham Bears in the tournament.

However, in a recent match against Derbyshire, he can be seen being involved in a rough fielding. After bowling to Derbyshire batter Wayne Madsen on the third ball of the 13th over, Brathwaite threw the ball back at the batter during follow-through. The ball hit the batter on his leg.

Brathwaite scored 18 in the match and took 1/29 with his bowling.
