NEW DELHI: England's Harry Brook fell victim to a bizarre dismissal, adding to the drama of the match, while negotiating Australian off-spinner Nathan Lyon on the first day of the Ashes opener at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Friday.
The freak incident happened in the 38th over of the innings when Lyon's short of length delivery got extra bounce after hitting the deck and it hit Brook's thigh pad. Nobody, including 'keeper, batter and short leg fielder, knew where the ball was going. It went high up in the air and then came down and landed on the back of Brook's leg and crashed onto the stumps leaving everyone surprised!
