The batsman would have been tired while waiting for Richard Gleeson to bowl the delivery. Since he was actually coming to bowl from the boundary line.
Mr Bean Reference
@mufaddal_vohra Meanwhile batsman 👇 https://t.co/GCoEV1P6LD

A Twitter user gave the reference to Mr Bean for the same. A famous meme of Mr Bean shows him waiting in the wide field and even resting for a while, which would have been the batsman’s situation.
Comparison
@mufaddal_vohra jadeja & kuldeep finish an over before that run-up 😭

By the time Richard Gleeson would be completing his run up, Ravindra Jadeja would be able to finish his over. This is a big comparison, since Jadeja has been quick with overs.
He Covers More
@mufaddal_vohra Bro covers more distance in his run-up than I do in my weekly cardio.

A Twitter user might just have made a comparison of Gleeson with himself. Gleeson covered more distance in his run up than he did in his entire weekly cardio.
