NEW DELHI: One of the crucial unfit and non athletic cricketers going world wide in the meanwhile, ‘large man’ Rahkeem Cornwall on Thursday suffered an embarrassing run out throughout a Caribbean Premier League match between Saint Lucia Kings and Barbados Royals.
The incident came about within the first over of Barbados’ chase when Rahkeem’s companion Kyle Mayers, on the non-striker’s finish, tried to steal a single after the ball struck Rahkeem’s pads and went to the brief fine-leg.
As Chris Sole fumbled the ball, Mayers took off, forcing Rahkeem to go for the run. However Sole instantly corrected his mistake and grabbed the ball and fired it straight on the stumps on the non-striker’s finish. Realising his destiny, Rahkeem gave up midway down the pitch and did not even attempt to make the crease.
