Though cricket is a tense sport on the field, there have been many instances of bizarre and funny dismissals in the game. Getting out is a basic element in cricket. But sometimes this basic element becomes funny or bizarre. Cricket is a gentleman’s game, but it also becomes funny sometimes.

There have been many instances where batsmen got out in a way that made the audience, the commentators and of course, the players laugh or get shocked.

So here are the 6 worst dismissals in the history of cricket:

Getting run out is the most regretful way to lose a wicket for a batsman. And this one was something that happened in a very embarrassing manner with the South African legend AB de Villiers.

So de Villiers tried to play a shot to the Zimbabwean spinner towards fine leg, but the ball actually didn’t middle his bat. It edged, and the keeper wasn’t able to collect it.

De Villiers thought that the ball went passing the keeper, and so he tried for a run. But the keeper actually stopped the ball with his leg, and he made no mistake by getting AB de Villiers run out.
