“Illegal, of course?” The mobile phone slips from the match between the cricketer’s pocket
A match between Lancashire and Glosterchyire occurred recently during a county championship game in England. Lancashire’s bowler Tom Bailey came out to bat, but was a matter of this unique situation. Trying to run two, Bailey’s mobile phone slipped from his trouser pocket. The peculiar incident raised the question of why Belly had taken his phone with him while batting. The Internet was surprised and shocked by the proceedings.
Belly came to bat on the second day of the match, batting first with Lancashire at 401/8. Bailey scored 22 runs off 31 balls and remained unbeaten till the end.

Former England cricketer Alex Tudor also rejected the incident with a response to the video.
