VIDEO | Sabbir Rahman and Mahmudullah’s combined brainfade results in former’s hilarious dismissal

While trying to work a Vijay Shankar ball on the leg-side, Mahmudullah was done by a slower delivery and the ball was collected by Karthik behind the stumps. However, being unsure about where did the ball go, Rahman started running towards the strikers end to complete the run, but Mahmudullah was more concerned about whether he was caught plumb or not. 

Knowing that there was a chance to break the partnership, DK instantly threw the ball back to Shankar, but his Tamil Nadu teammate, while collecting the ball, fell down near the middle of the pitch. While by then, Rahman was the culprit of making a wrong call and going for a run, Mahmudullah decided it was his time to become the villain. The latter had a real chance of making the run possible all thanks to Shankar’s awkward body movements, but much to the dismay of the Bangla fans, he didn’t even try to make his crease. It was much easier a chance for him to take the run rather than forcing Rahman to go back as the latter had to make a complete 180 degree movement first before thinking of returning.
