ZIM vs SA | Twitter reacts as Madhevere ends own misery after horrid stay with humiliating hit-wicket

no image

It is always a rare occasion for a batter to be dismissed hit-wicket in a game of cricket, and is utterly embarrassing for any batter who has the misfortune of experiencing it. Zimbabwean all-rounder Wessly Madhevere joined the unlucky list against South Africa in the T20I tri-series at Harare.

‌The first game of the tri-series between Zimbabwe and South Africa started with the Proteas bowlers creating problems for the Chevrons at the Harare Sports Club, conceding only 34 runs in the first six overs of the match. Right-arm quick Lungi Ngidi also managed to scalp Wessly Madhevere in the process for a score of just one run but more than his nine-ball horror stay, it was the way Madhevere was dismissed that got everyone scratching their heads.

Ngidi had already caused problems for the 24-year-old all-rounder in his frugal spell. In the five balls Madhevere had faced from the South African pacer, he had beaten him several times before his dismissal, which was probably one of the most embarrassing ways to get dismissed for any batter in international cricket. All it took was a back-of-the-length skiddy delivery on which he backed away very deep in his crease, only to find his backfoot crashing into the stumps.

That was so bad!

Damn!

Hahaha!

Looks very sad!

Yeah!

LOL!

Their fav!
