Actually, a very funny sight was seen in the 19th over of RCB’s innings. On the second ball of this over, Karthik played a shot in the off side and came out of the crease to take a quick run. Seeing Karthik taking a run, Harshal Patel, standing on the non-strike, also started running, but then Karthik realized that the ball had reached the fielder. After which Dinesh Karthik returned to his crease, but Harshal Patel, on the other hand, had come a long way to take the run. In such a situation, both the batsmen reached the same end.
Both the batsmen were at one end, so one player was bound to be out. But, it did not happen due to the mistake of Umesh Yadav. Actually, Umesh Yadav had thrown the throw towards the strike end instead of throwing towards the non strike, so Karthik had a chance to run towards the non strike. As soon as the throw towards the strike end misses the stump, Karthik swiftly runs towards the non-striking side. However, Dinesh Karthik reaches inside the non-strike crease at the right time.
