The ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 League saw a bizarre moment when former India bowler Abhimanyu Mithun bowled a no-ball, which surprised the viewers everywhere. The incident happened during the match between Northern Warriors and Chennai Braves. Mithun overstepped once in his 2 overs to bowl a no-ball, but it was a massive one.

The instance happened in the 5th over of the chase when Mithun came on to bowl his 1st over of the innings. The right-arm seamer struck with only his 2nd delivery, dismissing the dangerous Bhanuka Rajapaksa.

He could have got Charith Asalanka on the very next delivery, but he overstepped big time as replays showed the foot was one or two yards ahead of the bowling crease.

Mithun removed Sikandar Raza, who smashed 27 off only 10 deliveries as well after Rajapaksa. The Braves won the toss and elected to field first and restricted the opposition to 106-3 in 10 overs, with Hazratullah Zazai doing the bulk of scoring with 54 off 32 deliveries.

A pair of 22 from Asalanka and Stephen Eskinazi, followed by Raza's 27 gifted a five-wicket win for their side.

The netizens were surprised at the massive no-ball by Mithun and some even found it a bit strange and compared it with the no-balls Mohammad Amir bowled during the infamous 2010 Test.

Here are some reactions:
