A junior fielding side hilariously erupted in Punjabi folk dance Bhangra on the face of the aggrieved batter after a run-out became inevitable.
Enjoying the best time of their lives, a set of junior cricketers hilariously erupted in a dance together upon dismissing an opposition batter. In a viral clip that brought a smile to faces over the internet, this fielding side started doing Punjabi folk dance Bhangra after a run-out became inevitable in the funniest scenes you will see on a cricket field.
The details of the clip's origin are not known. But what caught the internet's attention is the most amusing celebrations one can imagine for a dismissal. The fielding side started doing Bhangra in front of the disappointed opposition player, who was livid with his teammate following the mix-up that resulted in a run-out.
What Exactly Unfolded Before Bhangra Celebrations
The most hilarious scenes unfolded after an opposition left-hand batter drove the ball to covers and immediately called the non-striker for a run. The two players easily completed the run before a wayward throw came from the deep and evaded the bowler. As the ball went to the other side, the two batters tried to take advantage of the overthrow and committed to a second run.
Midway through his stride, one of the batters realised the second run was not on and called his partner to stay put at the batting end. But it was too late, as this poor guy had by then over-ran his mark. The two players were soon left stranded at one end while the wicketkeeper eventually picked up the throw.
Just as this player felt aggrieved and looked at his partner with a great sense of bitterness, the wicketkeeper and the rest of the fielders rubbed salt into his wounds by doing Bhangra in the middle before executing the run-out. The sight of the two batters arguing, with the fielding side shaking their leg in the backdrop, was too funny for internet users.
Internet Users Love Bhangra Celebrations Of Junior Cricketers
The clip took internet users back to their childhood, when they used to have fun playing cricket with their friends and develop lifelong memories.
'Made my day. Our school keeper was crazy too, he'd call for a run pretending to be the batsman and the runner would come sprinting, and he'll run him@out at the non-striker. And then do a Marathi dance . Hahah. Fun days and this team@reminded me of this," wrote one user.
Some raised concerns over the spirit of cricket from the fielding side that mocked the opposition player indirectly. 'Game is great leveller, they will get tougher lesson when time comes," this user commented.
For the majority, though, it was a lighthearted moment and should be taken accordingly. One person summed up, 'People saying zero sportsmanship, I only see kids enjoying their sport, I dont think it was anything personal, they were just enjoying."
'WK is full of swag the way he takes the bails off in the end," another user said.
