On the first delivery of the second day of the Ranchi Test, the Indian bowler Umesh Yadav broke the bat of Glenn Maxwell into two pieces. Maxwell just played the delivery down but the impact of the delivery was such that Maxwell’s bat broke into two pieces.
There was nothing special with the delivery but the force was such that the bat broke and there were all smiles on the field as it was just the first delivery of the game and no one would have expected such sort of start to the day’s play. Here is the video of the incident –
The Australian team came out to bat on a score of 299 with four down with Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell batting on a score of 117* and 82*. However, soon Maxwell reached nervous nineties by a hitting couple of boundaries.
