WATCH: Commentator Falls from Chair Watching Chris Woakes Bowl Spin, Video Goes Viral | The Express Tribune
Seeing English fast bowler Chris Woakes bowling spin, commentator Nasser Hussain fell off his chair.
At the historic Oval cricket ground, Sri Lanka and England were facing each other in the third Test match of the series.
On the second day of play, English fast bowler Chris Woakes was suddenly asked to complete his over quickly, upon which he started bowling spin.
During the Lankan innings, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky and the ground started getting dark.
The light had reduced so much that fast bowling was no longer suitable for play, so the umpires stopped Woakes in the middle of the over and asked him to bowl the remaining deliveries as spin.
As a result, Woakes started bowling as an off-spinner. Fans and fellow cricketers were astonished to see the fast bowler bowling spin, and renowned English commentator Nasser Hussain fell off his chair during commentary.
During Chris Woakes’ off-spin bowling, former captain Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain were performing commentary duties.
It is worth noting that in the Test match, Sri Lanka achieved a historic victory by winning by 8 wickets.
