The Abu Dhabi T10 league has seen some of the most innovative batting in cricket given that only 10 overs to play per innings. And Chris Lynn and Alex Hales of Team Abu Dhabi have been at the forefront of that carnage with the bat.
Recently, when their side play the eliminator match of the ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 league, something straight out of gully cricket was seen as Hales and Lynn used something very simple to decide who will take strike.
The duo played a game of rock-paper-scissors to decide who will take the strike and the video of them playing this silly thing has gone viral on the internet.
