Cricket | That six smashed the beer glass; The Kiwis player bought beer for a fan

The bizarre incident took place in the 56th over of the New Zealand innings on the first day of the second Test at Trent Bridge. Daryl Mitchell hit a six over the straight boundary into the beer glass of a fan who was drinking beer while enjoying the game. A huge six came and fell on the glass and splashed all over the beer. It was later discovered that the sixer had hit the beer glass of a fan named Susan.

When the others burst out laughing, Susan did not like it. They reacted seriously. The players on the field did not even understand what had happened for a while. England pacer Matthew Pott, who was regarding to recover the ball, tried to explain to his teammates what had happened to the ball. The ball that had fallen into the beer had to be dried before the game might resume.

However, in a good gesture, Susan was relieved when the New Zealand team offered another to replace the broken beer in the six. Later, Daryl Mitchell, the perpetrator of the incident, posed for a photo with Susan following the game.

England reduced New Zealand from 84/0 to 84/2 and then from 161/2 to 169/4. However, Mitchell (81 *) and Tom Blunt (67 *) put the team on 318/4 in 87 overs without further loss. James Anderson and Ben Stokes took two wickets each.
