You don’t have to like cricket to enjoy this funniest thing ever to happen on a cricket pitch
There have been lots of memorable moments in the T20 cricket World Cup so far, but surely none of them will stick in the memory quite like this.
It’s Afghanistan all-rounder Gulbadin Naib who suffered a surprise injury during a dramatic rain-affected match with Bangladesh.
The chap in the cap waving frantically from the sidelines is Afghanistan coach, former England player Jonathan Trott, gesturing to his players to slow the game down.
And then this happened.

The fact that this happened in the game that knocked Australia out of the tournament in David Warner's last game is NOT funny
Not. At. All.
Stop laughing. https://t.co/b8m0n2uVUm

Whatever the truth, we hope he (and our aching sides) recover in time for the next match.
