#4 David Warner handing over the shoe to Basil Thampi
This might just be one of the craziest things a cricketer has ever done in the field!
The incident took place in the match between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Gujarat Lions, which was played in the 10th edition of the IPL. Put in to bat first, Gujarat Lions could score only 135 runs in the 20 overs. Chasing a low total, David Warner and Moises Henriques were batting freely without any pressure in the second innings.
In the 10th over of the 2nd innings, Henriques was batting while David Warner was on the non-striker's end. Bowler Bail Thampi bowled a length delivery which Henriques defended towards the right. Thampi dived rightwards to stop the ball but failed to stop it. Instead, his shoe popped out of his foot. Surprisingly, Warner, who was running between the wickets, stopped mid-way to hand over the fallen shoe to Thampi. He resumed the running thereafter.
His action was applauded by the audiences on and off the field.
Later, David Warner posted a picture of the moment with a witty caption.
