Cricket, over the years, has evolved a lot, and today it's a fact that fielding is equally important as batting or bowling in deciding the outcome of the match. Every run saved increases the chances of a win. If a player is unfit, he usually struggles to find a place in the squad, at least at a professional level.

The fielding standards have also gone up. The players are ready to give their all, putting their bodies at risk, even to save a solitary run. A similar incident was witnessed during a street premier league match, the video of which has taken the internet by storm. In the video, the batsman pulls a short ball towards the leg side boundary, where the fielder pulls off a stunning effort to save a run. However, things took a hilarious turn when the fielder threw the ball towards the bowler, who collected it and had a wayward shy at the stumps. The ball went past the stumps into the boundary, giving four easy extra runs, leaving the fielder shocked.

Meanwhile, the fans gave hilarious reactions to the video.

Shifting to IPL, Punjab Kings (PBKS) continued their winning run and defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 18 runs. Priyansh Arya scored a brilliant 103 to help PBKS post 219-6, and CSK fell comfortably short of the target despite Devon Cownay's fifty. The defeat was CSK's fourth in five games. Meanwhile, PBKS won their third game in their fourth outing and moved to fourth in the points table.
