‘You don’t see that often!’ – Buttler’s unconventional run-out

BBC Sport · 3 days ago

At Old Trafford during the second T20 match, Jos Buttler achieved an uncommon run-out dismissal of Axar Patel. His attempt to strike the batter's stumps proved unsuccessful, but the ball's trajectory carried it onward until it struck the opposite set of stumps at the non-striker's end, resulting in the run-out.

This particular type of dismissal rarely occurs in cricket, as the circumstances—where a directed ball fails at its intended target yet still causes a batsman's removal—constitute an infrequent occurrence in the sport. The dismissal took place when India's innings showed 165 runs and six wickets lost, representing a notable moment in the second T20 fixture.

  • Jos Buttler dismissed Axar Patel through a rare run-out method at Old Trafford
  • His delivery intended for the batter's stumps rolled through to strike the non-striker's end instead
  • India's score was 165-6 when this uncommon dismissal occurred
