In a hilarious incident, Australian cricketer Fawad Ahmed walked out to bat with a wrong pair of gloves in the ongoing season Sheffield Shield season on Friday. He plays for Victoria in the domestic tournament and the incident happened during the game against Queensland. However, this is not the first time Fawad has done it as in the last season earlier this year he had forgotten to carry his bat while walking out to bat in the middle which had left everyone laughing including the opponents.

Fawad is not known for his batting and is in the side as a leg-break bowler. Though a cricketer is expected to carry all the required stuff while going out to bat. He hasn’t played much for Australia and has donned the jersey in only 5 international matches for them. He was rated highly when he first broke through in the international arena but then was ignored as age was not on his side. Though a good show with the ball in the ongoing season might earn him a place as a reserve spinner which is highly unlikely as of now.

The funny incident

The official Twitter handle of Cricket Australia posted a video of both the hilarious incident. In the video, Ahmed first forgets his bat while walking out in the middle which had happened on 8th March earlier this year. On Friday, he didn’t forget his bat but wore the wrong pair of gloves which once again evolved a laughter. He looked distraught after repeating his own actions in the last season and was trolled by the board in their tweet as well.

The video was captioned as, “Well, at least Fawad Ahmed is improving! Another classic reaction… #SheffieldShield #QLDvVIC. Finally, after wearing the correct gloves he could score only a solitary run in the first innings for his team as Victoria were bowled out for 148. He is awaiting his chance to bat in the second innings as they have lost 5 wickets chasing 330 runs. Fawad would hope to contribute to his team in the second essay and hope he doesn’t forget anything while going ito bat.
