Watch: Commentators Absolutely Lose It After Comedy Of Errors From Fielding Team In European Cricket Series

From run-out to overthrows, the eagerness to steal a quick run can bring in all sorts of possibilities into play in the world of cricket. But there are times when trying to take a single might lead to some bizarre instances. A similar incident took place during a recent European League Series (ECS) match in Czech Republic. In a video shared by ECS on their official Twitter handle, the Vinohardy CC players can be seen making a series of howlers in the outfield, which allowed the Prague Barbarians batters -- Jahanur Hoque and Andrew Sims -- to steal three runs.

Vinohardy players had three chances to effect a run out, but made in absolute mess of things in one of the funniest cricketing videos ever seen.

"They sneaked in 3 runs out of nowhere," the European Cricket Network captioned the video on Twitter.
