Men’s Hundred | Twitter laughs at Shimron Hetmyer's brain fade moment leading to an unexpected six
Concentration is of utmost importance when fielding at the ropes, as even a small mistake can have significant consequences. Such was the case in the game between Trent Rockets and London Spirit, when Shimron Hetmyer's lack of focus while judging a catch led to an unnecessary six.
On the 34th delivery, Matthew Critchley dished a flatter delivery outside the off stump to Hales. The English opener aimed the line well and got low, slog-sweeping the white rock bang-on towards deep mid-wicket. Meanwhile, Hetmyer was stationed at the position and saw the ball coming. But as the white rock inched closer, the Caribbean star made a mess and lost sight of the ball. The ball crossed the ropes for a maximum as the London contingent couldn't believe what had just happened. After some time, Hetmyer gesticulated that he lost his balance and, as a result, took his eyes off the ball. Seeing this unfold, the Twitterverse couldn't hold their laughter and took to social media to talk about it.
Wait what???
