Where Cricket meets memories
In a Test match between Sri Lanka and West Indies in 2001, it took 3 bowlers to complete 1 single over. The over which was started by Dillon bowled only 2 balls before he felt sudden pain which forced him to stop. Then Colin Stuart took charge, however, he was removed by the Umpire, John Hampshire, after bowling 2 consecutive full toss balls over the waist. Finally, the last 3 balls were bowled by Chris Gayle.
