Watch: Klye Klein dismisses Shayan Jahangir with John-Cena celebration in USA vs NED T20 WC 2026

Even though two associate nations, the United States of America and the Netherlands, met each other during the T20 World Cup 2026 at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, the excitement and heat were at their peak. The spectators also came in massive numbers during the contest to enjoy two sides going after each other with full skills in batting and bowling.

On the fourth delivery of the third over, Kule Klein offered width with a fullish length delivery against Shayan Jahangir as the batter threw his bat to flay it over the extra cover. It came off the bottom of his bat while getting the required elevation to cross the infield for a boundary.

But on the very next delivery, the bowler had his revenge on the batter. It was fuller than being called a length delivery as the batter swung across to the ball that nipped away a shade. But the batter’s feet were cemented on the crease as he ended up missing it completely.

Jahangir was beaten on the outside edge as the ball crashed into the stumps. Klevin gave the batter a John Cena’ aggressive celebration with ‘you can’t see me’ expression. Jahangir walked back for 20 runs in 14 balls with the help of two boundaries and one six.
