Watch: Brain Fade! Batter Is Run Out But No Appeal From Fielders Saves Him

Players unsually appealing for a wicket is quite a common scene on a cricket field. However, players not even making a genuine appeal is a bit rare. What is rare of the rarest is when a batter is out, yet the fielding side fails to appeal for the wicket. Call it nothing but a brainfade moment! A similar incident was witnessed during a Tamil Nadu Premier League match between Salem Spartans and Lyca Kovai Kings at SCF Cricket Ground on Tuesday.

Lyca Kovai Kings' S Sujay was the batter, who had the lady luck on his side. On the fourth ball of the third over, he steered a fuller delivery towards the cover point and tried to steal a single. A good fielding saw a throw coming at the non-striker's end. Sujay, in a bid to save himself, jumped over without even entering the crease. Before he could land inside, the ball had already hit the stumps. Sujay was gone for all the money but to his good luck, none of the Salem Spartans players appealed for it.

Watch the video here:

Sujay, who was then batting on 10, went on to score 44 runs off 32 balls, helping his side Lyca Kovai Kings post 199 for 8 in 20 overs. Salem Spartans lost the game by 79 runs as they were bundled out for 120.

The Tamil Nadu Premier League saw history being made during the match between Chepauk Super Gillies and Salem Spartans earlier this month. It was none other than the captain of the Spartans side, Abhishek Tanwar, who conceded 18 runs as he completed the last legal ball of the 20th over of the innings.

Skipper Ashleigh Gardner starred with both bat and ball, leading Gujarat Giants to a comprehensive six-wicket win over UP Warriorz in their Women's Premier League match in Vadodara on Sunday.

Opting to bowl, Gujarat produced a clinical effort with young spinner Priya Mishra returning impressive figures of 4-0-25-3. Skipper Gardner, Deandra Dottin (2/34), and Kashvee Gautam (1/15) also played key roles in restricting UPW to 143 for nine. Chasing 144 to win, the Giants were reduced to 22 for 2 with opener Beth Mooney and Dayalan Hemalata back in the pavilion after UPW introduced spin at both ends. However, Gardner produced an inspired knock, adding 55 runs off 42 balls with Laura Wolvaardt (22) to resurrect the innings. Gardner struck t...

'Not Taught About Sambhaji': Ex-Cricketer's 'Aurangzeb' Remarks Start Debate

The Vicky Kaushal-starrer movie 'Chhaava', based on the life and times of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj - the second ruler of the Maratha Confederacy and son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, has received positive response from audience across the country. Apart from Vicky Kaushal as Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, Rashmika Mandanna (as Yesubai Bhonsale), Akshaye Khanna (as Aurangzeb), Ashutosh Rana (as Hambirrao Mohite), Diana Penty (as Zinat-un-Nissa Begum) and Divya Dutta (as Soyarabai) play prominent roles in the movie.   Former India cricket team star Aakash Chopra also liked the movie. He, however, raised some questions after watching the film.  "Watched Chhaava today. Incredible tale of bravery, selflessness and the sense of duty.  Genuine question—why were we not taught about Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaj at all in school? Not even a mention anywhere!!!  We did learn though how Akbar was a great and fair emperor, and even have a very prominent road called Auran...
