In a rare and strange cricket moment, Pakistan's Usama Mir got out hit wicket during The Hundred Men's match between Manchester Originals and Southern Brave at the Rose Bowl in Southampton on Thursday. Southern Brave won the match by 7 wickets.
The odd dismissal happened on the last ball of the Manchester innings. Chris Jordan bowled a yorker outside the off stump, and Mir deep in his crease accidentally hit the stumps with his bat while trying to play a shot. This unexpected way of getting out is one of the strangest in cricket.
Usama Mir scored 11 runs from seven balls, including two boundaries, before his unusual dismissal.
Manchester Originals scored 116 for 6, which wasn't enough against Southern Brave. The Brave easily chased the target, winning by 7 wickets with 22 balls left.
The Hundred's official handle on X highlighted the unusual dismissal with a video, captioned:
"You don’t see batters get out like this very often! Usama Mir hits his wicket on the final ball of Manchester Originals’ innings."
You don’t see batters get out like this very often!
