WATCH: Rashid Khan falls down hilariously while appealing against Beau Webster in BBL 2019-20

Rashid Khan falls down hilariously: The Strikers’ spinner couldn’t hide his excitement while appealing at the Adelaide Oval.

During the 34th match of the ongoing ninth season of the Big Bash League between Adelaide Strikers and Melbourne Renegades in Adelaide, Adelaide Strikers spinner Rashid Khan was seen falling down hilariously while appealing against Melbourne Renegades batsman Beau Webster.

It all happened on the first delivery of the 15th over when Webster missed a flick against Rashid only to see the ball hitting his front pad right in front of the stumps.

Given how sure Rashid was of the decision going his way, an animated appeal saw him losing his balance and eventually losing his balance.

Having dismissed his countryman and Renegades all-rounder Mohammad Nabi (6) in his previous over, Rashid picked his second wicket in the form of Webster. Bowling figures of 4-0-19-2 played a huge role in the hosts bundling out Renegades for 110 in 17.4 overs.

Apart from Rashid, Strikers seamer Peter Siddle and captain Travis Head also picked three and two wickets respectively.

After Head won the toss and chose to bat, Strikers posted 173/6 in 20 overs on the back of an 80-run partnership for the fifth wicket between Jonathan Wells (58) and Matthew Short (41).
