Lancashire has officially announced the acquisition of Nathan Lyon as one of their overseas players for the upcoming season. The esteemed Australian spinner, holding the eighth position on the all-time Test wicket-takers list, is anticipated to be available for the entire summer campaign.

Getting lucky in cricket is very common for batsmen, be it a dropped catch or a misfield. However, Lewis Goldsworthy bizarrely encountered misfortune and great luck at the same time as a chunk of his bat hit the stumps, only for the umpire to turn the tables by calling the delivery a no-ball.

When Indian players step on English soil to play in the County, they intend to make their visit memorable with a string of superb performances. Prithvi Shaw did make his County debut immortal as well but in an unusual way as he succumbed to a bizarre hit wicket dismissal by kicking the stumps.

It is a rare occurrence when a batter manages to get positive and negative outcomes of the same delivery. However, Toby Roland-Jones managed to do the same in the County Championship fixture as he first smashed a maximum but threw it away later by dislodging bails with his bat.
