A truly bizarre incident took place in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, where pacer Abhimanyu Mithun leaved fans baffled by bowling no-ball. In the 14th match of the tournament, Mithun over-stepped while bowling but the length of the distance between his foot and the crease left everyone stunned. It all happened during the match between Chennai Braves and the Northern Warriors on Saturday. Soon after the incident took place, the images and videos of Mithun’s extravagant no-ball spread like wildfire on social media, with some even speculating if there’s something fishy.
While over-stepping is one of the most common forms of no-ball in the game, the extent to which Mithun’s foot went ahead of the crease, was truly baffling.
