Derbyshire's Pakistan batter Haider Ali was brutally trolled after his hilarious dismissal in T20 Blast fixture against Birmingham on Wednesday. In a bizarre turn of events, Haider's stumping has become a source of immense entertainment and fans couldn't help but laughed over the hilarious dismissal. The incident happed in the 11th over of Hampshire's chase. Haider failed to connect with Danny Briggs' overpitched delivery. Although Warwickshire's wicketkeeper Alex Davies failed to grab the ball initially, Haider's casual attempt to get back gave him another opportunity to effect the stumping.
Without wasting the opportunity, Davies swiftly dislodged the bails to complete the stumping, leaving Haider in a state of shock.

After the Bears piled up 203 for seven, Du Plooy smashed an unbeaten 66 from 25 balls to see his side to 207 for four in 19.3 overs.
