Cricket is an amazing game! From batting masterclass to sensational bowling to breathtaking fielding, it certainly has everything to impress the spectators. Besides the performance of the players what adds more fun to the game is the external factors. Sometimes it is the decision of the umpires, sometimes it is the action of the crowd and sometimes it is the bizarre events like cows invading the playing area. Yes, you read it right! Not every cricket match could be provided as good security as the international games and that gives room to the occurrence of such incidents.

Not only the players but also the umpires got on duty to drive the cows away, who eventually made their way out of the ground through the gate. Even the commentators were left speechless.
