Watch: Local man refuses to give ball smashed for six in TNPL 2024 game

Tamil Nadu Premier League 2024 has reached its business end and the fans have started occupying stands for the playoff phase of the tournament. Not only the spectators at the stadium but a fan has garnered immense attention for his antics outside the stadium. During the 27th game between Chepauk Super Gillies and Siechem Madurai Panthers, the batter smashed the ball out of the park and the local guy refused to give the ball back.

The incident occurred during the fifth ball of the 12^th over as Panther’s J Kousik bowled a short delivery and D Santhosh Kumar smoked it way over the park with a clean pull. The ball sailed for a long time before finally landing near a field. The individual roaming around the NPR College Ground Stadium in Dindigul picked up the leather and refused to give it back with an animated demeanour. 

Here’s the hilarious video of the incident:
