Twitter reacts to ‘magician’ Watling trying to stump Rory Burns without the ball in hand
BJ Watling doing his best
|Test Match Special Twitter handle
They called BJ Watling underrated, for his wicketkeeping and batting but on Saturday, he brought around a new facet of his career - being a magician. After Rory Burns had walked past Mitchell Santner’s delivery, magician Watling had missed the ball before he removed the bails from its groove.
Ohh dear!! How can you miss this??

The best over of Mitch Santner in this game unlucky that he didn't get much important wicket
Come on @BLACKCAPS just 1 more wicket then it's EZPZ #ENGvNZ #WTCFinal #WTC21 pic.twitter.com/JfBMhgj18m
It wa so easy and missed it!
I hate BJ Watling for that, that’s a regulation stumping.

Poor Santner, done by Watling so badly!
BJ Watling has done a blunder, that’s rare! Mitch Santner has been really unlucky today.
