Alex Hales trolled by team-mates for his unique way of taking Misbah-ul-Haq's catch

The third day of the first Test between England and Pakistan at Lord’s ended on a balanced note with both teams having a 50-50 chance of winning from the current situation. After the end of day 3’s play, Pakistan were 214 for the loss of eight wickets, taking the lead to 281.

But there was something which later became a matter of troll for England cricketers. During the play of third day, Pakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq played lofty shot for a six towards deep mid-wicket but Alex Hales at the rope took a running catch. It was a brilliant effort by Hales but later it came into notice that Hales’ eyes were in different direction from where the ball was coming, though he managed to take the catch. Also Read: Moeen Ali says cricket is important but not above Islam

Thanks to England spinner Moeen Ali, who tweeted about Hales’ brilliant hand-eye co-ordination later after the end of day’s play. It was Moeen who took the wicket of Misbah. After Moeen, Jos Buttler too joined him trolling his facial expression while grabbing that catch, followed by Stuart Broad and Malcolm Upton with their hilarious tweet and photo.
