Watch: Yusuf Pathan almost laughs at poor umpiring call; Video goes viral

 

The ongoing edition of the Road Safety World Series witnessed a funny umpiring decision. It was arguably one of the worst decisions but it did not attract everyone as it was a non-international game. 

The former Indian all-rounder, Yusuf Pathan was the bowler who dismissed Zander de Bruyn with the help of LBW. The decision should have been 'not out as the ball was missing the leg stumps. 

But, the umpire had thought something before giving it out. The fans and commentators could not believe the decision. Even the bowler, Yusuf Pathan was stunned that the decision went in his favour. 

The video of Yusuf Pathan controlling his laugh has gone viral:

The decision to give de Bruyn out was so funny. Yusuf just appealed for a formality but the umpire raised his fingers though it was missing the stumps. The all-rounder controlled his laugh by covering his emotions with his hands.

There are many moments that have gone viral these days. The Twitters users capture and uploads the unseen and rare clips on their accounts. 

But, the umpire, Sanjay Hazare, who gave one of his worst ever decisions, should have felt shame after the incident. If the tournament had the DRS rule, a bad call could have reversed.

India Legends beat South Africa Legends:
