It happens very rarely that a fielder misses his throw at the stumps and instead ends up hitting the bowler on his legs but the Rajasthan Royals (RR) pacer, Prasidh Krishna produced one such moment. He tried to throw the ball towards the striker’s end for a run-out but Trent Boult came in his way and they all crashed him on his boots and the southpaw pacer tripped while trying to save himself from the throw with a jump. However, the overall incident left everyone in splits.
Rajasthan Royals (RR) has been witnessing a decent outing in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 so far and they are also involved in an exciting clash against Kolkata Knight Riders. RR was asked by the opposition to bat first after losing the toss. Sanju Samson scored a half-century on a difficult surface.

Shimron Hetmyer played a cameo in the end which helped his team to reach a defendable score of 152/5. Defending the target, Prasidh Krishna’s throw produced a hilarious moment. Trent Boult was bowling the second over of the innings. He bowled a full delivery to Indrajith on the first ball and he pushed it towards mid-on.
The batters tried to take a quick single and Prasidh, who was fielding at the mid-on position aimed to hit towards the striker’s end. However, he missed the throw and hit it on Trent Boult’s boot who was standing in the way. The ball deflected and the single was converted into two runs.

If that was Bhuvi Kumar instead of Trent Boult, he would be out for 6 months
