Watch: England Stars Left In Splits By "World Class" Fielding In Club Cricket

Club cricket is one of the most prestigious form of the game and it has produced plenty of international cricketers over the years. However, in a recent club cricket match, two players were involved in a hilarious fielding effort. In a video posted by Spondon CC Juniors on their Twitter handle, a backup fielder can be seen hitting his teammate with the ball as he leans down to allow the throw to be completed. The video soon went viral on the internet with veteran England pacer Stuart Broad, sarcastically calling the fielding effort, "World Class".

Broad's teammate and fellow veteran Joe Root couldn't stop laughing.
