A contestant on the game show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) could have won INR 7 crore, but a question related to cricket became a barrier for him. The question was a bit tricky one, and someone who doesn't follow the game closely would have no clue.
The participant, named Ajeet Kumar, won INR 1 crore and had to skip the question for the final question.
The question for INR 7 crore was, "Who is the first cricketer to score two T20 International fifties on the same day in two different matches?"
Options for the question were: Nawroz Mangal, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Shahzad and Shakib Al Hasan.
It was Afghanistan's Mohammad Shahzad who smashed two fifties on the same day (20 January 2017) during Desert T20 Challenge. The first fifty (80) of the day came against Oman, and he (52*) later repeated it facing Ireland.
Ajeet, who hails from Bihar, had no clue about the answer. After quitting the show, host Amitabh Bachchan asked him to guess an answer, and he was wrong as he asked 'Nawroz Mangal' to be locked.
