Knowing youve won a cricket match is one thing, but you have to do it within the rules, and you have to be aware of whats going on around you. However we know accidents and unintentional things do happen in this strange game. Also when you are not accustomed to winning series against higher ranked teams and you manage to achieve the feat, its a very encouraging and amazing accomplishment Unintentional short run Law 18.5 (a) if either batsman runs a short run, the umpire concerned shall, unless a boundary is scored, call and signal Short run as soon as the ball becomes dead and that run shall not be scored. With one run to win and more balls than some politicians I know, Bangladeshi batsman Nasir Hossain hits the ball over the infield for what appears to be the winning run in to win the match and the series against the West Indies. This of course sent the Bangladeshi camp in a frenzy, not to mention the cricket hungry spectators, inclusive of the Bangladeshi Prime Minister. Confusion sets in amidst jubilant Bangladeshi players after WIndies players remain on the field claiming that the run wasnt complete. Elias Sunny indeed did not complete the run, thinking it was a boundary. The run(s) had been scrapped, and the next ball Nasir made sure there was no confusion and Bangladesh went on to complete a well-deserved series win. The video title is misleading by the way :)
