3. Anil Kumble’s boundary-kick Anil-Kumble

The outfields of Australia are known for their harsh sizes, and batsmen would often run 4 runs, by the time the fielder managed to even reach the cricket ball. In 1999, one such incident took place during a practice Test between India and Australia. The poor fielder was the legendary bowler of India, Anil Kumble, who was not too well known for his aptitude at chasing the ball. As the Aussies batsmen were gearing up to run the 5th run by the time Kumble had managed to close in on the ball, a spark of genius prompted Kumble to kick the ball to the ropes, restricting the Aussie batsmen to only 4 runs.
