I don't see what you are all finding so funny? Good bat speed and the right intentions if you ask me - just needs to work on his post-shot flourish!

Ha ha, I agree actually - and I reckon more of us than would like to admit have been there!

Good alternative to having a third umpire too - give the square leg a camera. That run out at 1:36 was a mile out with a direct hit!

Just gone international! This clip has been shown on The Crowd Goes Wild in NZ, it's a sports programme on Sky. Mark Richardson one of the presenters was highly disgusted.

I've long been an advocate of giving square leg umps a mobile phone for run outs...

That is absolutely hilarious and funnier the second time.  And I've never, ever seen anyone batting in a hockey helmet, superb!

Wonderful, even my wife found it funny.

Was also amused by the fielder at point, who was walking in with his hands in his pockets, cold up North.
