Mitchell Marsh's six hits cameraman in LSG vs RCB IPL 2026 clash; check details
The ball’s trajectory took an unexpected turn. Instead of landing safely among the spectators, it struck the cameraman positioned just beyond the boundary.
In a high-voltage Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 encounter between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Mitchell Marsh delivered a stunning six that left everyone talking. The Australian all-rounder, opening for LSG, smashed a massive hit straight into the cameraman stationed near the boundary ropes.
Details about the incident
The drama unfolded during the powerplay at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. Josh Hazlewood, bowling with his usual accuracy for RCB, delivered a good-length ball just outside off stump. Marsh was ready. He leaned forward with perfect balance, kept his elbow high, and swung through with a straight bat. The ball soared cleanly over mid-off and cleared the ropes for a maximum.
However, the ball’s trajectory took an unexpected turn. Instead of landing safely among the spectators, it struck the cameraman positioned just beyond the boundary.
