When you talk about cricket match being played in English weather the two things that come to mind is the weather and a beer in hand. Currently England are facing Sri Lanka at home with the first test currently underway at Old Trafford stadium in Manchester.
On the third day of the match, a fan went viral on social media for his one handed catch in the stands with beer glasses in the other hand.
The incident happened when Asitha Fernando was bowling to Mark Wood . The Sri Lanka pacer bowled a short delivery to Wood, who pulled the delivery and the ball landed in the hands of a fan siting in deep mid-wicket, stand. The fan had four pints of beer glass in his one hand while taking a one-hand stunner, leaving everyone amazed.
As the cameras panned towards him, he signed off with a salute. England team's coach Paul Collingwood, who was sitting in the dressing room was left stunned as he tried to imitate the fan's action by holding an imaginary beer pint and ball in his hands.
