[Watch] Ned Leonard gets caught and bowled by Ben Cliff in the most bizarre way possible in Somerset vs Yorkshire Second Eleven Twenty20 final

Ned Leonard got caught out in the most bizarre way possible by Ben Cliff in the Second Eleven Twenty20 final. The match between Somerset and Yorkshire in Wormsley was played on Tuesday, July 16.

In a video shared by Yorkshire Vikings on X, the Somerset batter can be seen hitting a full-length ball for a straight drive but it hit the non-striker and went towards Cliff. The pacer kept his eyes on the ball till the last minute to complete an easy deflection catch as Leonard departed for a two-ball duck.

Vikings captioned the post:

“How about this for a caught and bowled for Ben Cliff.”

Watch the video below:

Cliff impressed by picking up three wickets for just 30 runs in his four overs in the final. He finished with seven wickets in six games this season.
