IPL 2021: WATCH – Trent Boult puts in a hilariously desperate dive against Sunrisers Hyderabad

Boult's effort went in vain as David Warner managed to score a boundary.

Mumbai Indians (MI) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are currently facing each other in the 9th match of IPL 2021 at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.

Opting to bat first, the defending champions posted 150/5 in 20 overs. Quinton de Kock was the top scorer with 39-ball 40 while Kieron Pollard hit 35 not out off 22 deliveries.

In reply, SRH were cruising in the chase as the duo of David Warner and Jonny Bairstow put on an unbroken 55-run stand in just 5 overs.

During the 5th over of Sunrisers’ innings, a hilarious incident caught everyone’s attention, involving Trent Boult.

Krunal Pandya bowled a low full-toss outside off to Warner, who leant into the drive and placed the ball wide of mid-off.

Boult, who was stationed at mid-off, initially chased the ball and then put in a desperate dive, which looked quite hilarious but unfortunately he failed to save the boundary.

Here’s the video of the incident:
