Pakistan batsman Haider Ali of Derbyshire faced brutal trolling following his comical dismissal during a T20 Blast match against Birmingham. The incident occurred during Hampshire’s chase in the 11th over. Haider failed to connect with an overpitched delivery from Danny Briggs.
Despite Warwickshire’s wicketkeeper, Alex Davies initially fumbling the ball, Haider’s lackadaisical attempt to return to the crease presented Davies with another chance to effect the stumping. Seizing the opportunity, Davies quickly dislodged the bails, leaving Haider in a state of disbelief.
