Leeward Is vs Trinidad & Tobago: In cricket, you may have often seen matches being canceled due to bad weather, but in the West Indies Championship, a match had to be stopped because there was even a threat to the lives of the players on the pitch on which the match was being played. Yes, the ongoing match between Leeward Islands and Trinidad-Tobago in North Sound of West Indies had to be canceled due to bad pitch. In this match, Trinidad’s fast bowler Jaden Seals was bowling wreaking havoc. They had taken all 7 wickets but then something happened on the second ball of the 48th over due to which the game had to be stopped.
Seales hit the ball on the batsman’s temple.
Jaden Seals threw a ball to Leeward Islands batsman Jerimah Lewis. Which had fallen on good length but this ball got up from there and hit the batsman straight on his helmet. As soon as the ball hit, Jerimah fell on the ground. He took off his helmet while lying on the pitch and then stood up in anger and kicked the helmet away. The good thing is that this player did not suffer any serious injury. But the way the ball reached Jerimah was really dangerous. The video of this ball is going viral on social media.
