One of the best spinners produced by Australia, Nathan Lyon was seen trying his best to find the ball in bushes beyond the boundary line during a Sheffield Shield match.
As New South Wales and South Australia faced off in a cricket match, the ball became lost in the bushes outside the stadium.
Lyon was seen in a popular video looking for the missing ball in the bushes. He did discover a ball, but it was white (used in limited-overs cricket) rather than red (used in first-class cricket).
The ball was roughly 30 overs old and was lost when a batsman smashed it outside the stadium. Lyon and a few teammates started seeking for the ball, but they couldn't find it.
Lyon and his teammates were eventually joined by ground staff in the quest for the ball. After a thorough search, the crew discovered the misplaced ball.
The episode sparked a laugh riot on social media, with some fans even comparing it to gully cricket, where such incidents are common.
Here is the video:
