England wicket-keeper Jos Buttler took a bizarre review during the second T20I against Australia. The DRS was so bad, that even Buttler couldn't stop laughing after seeing the replay.

The Aussies lost early wickets after winning the toss and batting first. Buttler sensed they can push Australia completely on the back foot after getting captain Aaron Finch's wicket. 

When leg-spinner Adil Rashid appealed for an LBW after assuming the ball has hit Finch's pads in front of the wickets, Buttler felt the need of a DRS. But he had no idea from behind the wicket that the ball actually made no contact with the pad. In fact, it was hitting right in the middle of Finch's bat.

Not only the players on the field giggled, but the netizens also couldn't believe their eyes and laughed on the call. But eventually, Buttler was applauded by fans for his outstanding batting in the run chase. 

England won the match by 6 wickets and Buttler scored unbeaten 77 off 54 deliveries with 8 fours and 2 sixes. They secured the series by 2-0 with another match to be played.
