Ball Flew In Air Video: In the two-Test series played between Sri Lanka and New Zealand, New Zealand won 2-0. In the second Test, New Zealand won by innings and 58 runs. During this match, such an incident happened, which you would hardly have seen before. Actually, during this match, the ball flew in the air. The wind blew so fast in the game that it carried the ball, and the batsman kept watching.
Batsman Watching
The video of this ball flying in the air is becoming increasingly viral on social media. The video shows New Zealand spinner Michael Bracewell bowling and Prabath Jayasuriya batting from Sri Lanka. As soon as Bracewell bowled the ball, it turned towards the offside in the strong wind. Both the bowler and the batsman were surprised to see this.
Prabath Jayasuriya, who was batting, kept looking at this ball. The ball spun in the air so much that the ball pitched almost in the middle of the turf and hit the outside of the pitch. The wicketkeeper also had to spread his hands to catch this ball carefully. You must have seen many swings in the air, but you must have seen such a swing only for the first time.
Just when you think you’ve seen it all in cricket. High winds so single end coverage in Wellington. Here’s the supporting evidence… pic.twitter.com/AzQerm4h9b
