The ongoing second season of the Road Safety World Series 2022 has given the fans a chance to watch their heroes play again. Most of these players retired a long-time ago while the rest retired recently to play in the league. However, the fans wouldn't have expected a monumental mess in the fielding department from any of these teams. One such incident happened with the Bangladesh Legends team.
During the 19th game of the tournament between the two teams, the Lankan Lions were betting first. In the middle of the Lankan innings, a batter tried to play a sweep shot with the turn. The team went up in the air over the wicketkeeper's head. The wicketkeeper was unaware of the ball and the white Kookaburra went away from him. After the ball landed, it spun away which created room for the second run.
This wasn't the end of the story though. After the shot third-man fielder got hold of the ball, he kept it in his hand and never imagined that the batting pair would steal another run. The same thing happened and then, the overthrow meant that the pair completed four runs during the 'Harakiri'. The video is going viral on the internet.
