The strangest dismissal you'll ever see!

[kasabian21]

I thought this video deserved a thread of its own because this is by the strangest dismissal I've experienced. I'm not sure if you can see it in the (crap) video too well, but the ball flicks the pad, hits the inner forearm, hits the ground, bounces up, hits the bat and then the keeper catches it?! Mental physics but I love it!

Anyone else had any strange dismissals?

Luckily I was bowling! I seldom use a smiley, but my face was -> +

It looks like it goes through the pad and knee cap too!!

What? haha

No catch because it hit the ground so he was out LBW?

watch again - it hits the ground, bounces up and hits his bat and keeper takes a catch

don't think that'd be out in real life because of the second bounce?

I've had a couple go through the batsman's body which have resulted in bowleds, luckily I wasn't batting otherwise there would have been a Blockerdave type reaction!!

I would agree with you but I'm not 100% sure.

The other day I got caught behind off the top of my helmet. Call me Craig McDermott...
