The 30-year-old South Africa National Cricket Team all-rounder Corbin Bosch was part of an absurd moment during the second T20I match of the series against the Australia National Cricket Team.
Corbin Bosch damaged the stumps of the 23-year-old Australia National Cricket Team batter Mitchell Owen with a stunner, but the batter survived as the bails didn't fall.
Lucky escape for Mitchell Owen as bails refuse to fallCorbin Bosch looked stunning with the ball in the match against the Aussies at the Marrara Stadium in Darwin on Tuesday, August.
He bowled three overs in which he conceded just 20 runs and picked up the wickets of Mitchell Marsh, Ben Dwarshuis , and Adam Zampa .
He could have added one more wicket to his tally by dismissing Mitchell Owen, but the bails had some other plans, and the batter survived.
On the second ball of the 13th over, Corbin Bosch bowled a full-length delivery to Mitchell Owen on off-stump, and the batter got forward to loft but completely missed.
The ball cannoned into the outside of the off-stump, but the bails didn't fall. One of the zing bails even got lit up and moved from its position, but remained intact.
Corbin Bosch looked absolutely shocked after the incident, and Ryan Rickelton and Rassie van der Dussen also couldn't believe what they saw.
Mitchell Owen, however, failed to do any damage after getting a lucky escape, and he was castled by the pace-bowling sensation Kwena Maphaka for 13-ball 8.
