Carlos Brathwaite did such a thing because of the bowling that the team had to suffer and the result was that his team had to face defeat in the T20 Blast.
It is rarely seen in cricket that the fielding team gets a penalty of five runs. Very few such cases come to the fore. However, this has been seen in the T20 Blast being played in England and this work has been done by former West Indies captain Carlos Brathwaite. Carlos is the captain of Birmingham Bears in England’s T20 league. Birmingham faced Derbyshire. In this match, Carlos has done such a thing that the umpire imposed a penalty of five runs on his team. Carlos is also the captain of this team. Carlos did this work during his bowling. Derbyshire won this match by seven wickets. Batting first, Birmingham scored 159 runs for the loss of seven wickets. Derbyshire achieved this target by losing the first three wickets from 11 balls.
Carlos hits the ball to the batsman
This is the case of the 13th over of Derbyshire’s innings. Carlos bowled the third ball of this over and Wayne Madsen was in front of him. Carlos threw the ball on the off-stump, which Madsen played in front. The ball went into the hands of Carlos and this player threw the ball back towards Madson in the process of being run out, but the ball went to Madson’s feet. On this the umpire gave a five-run penalty to Carlos’s team. Although Carlos apologized to the batsman immediately after throwing the ball, but it did not have any effect.
