Cricket shot hits broadcast booth, showers commentators in glass
This is the most exciting thing to happen in cricket in approximately 71 years.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
The life of a cricket commentator is one of stamina. Hours after hours of sitting in the box, desperately trying to find something to talk about in between bowls. It often leads to discussions of fan clothing, train schedules and interesting tidbits, but when Australia faced Zimbabwe, they got more than they bargained for.
Mitchell Johnson hit a heck of an off drive for six, right into the commentary box window. The broadcast perfectly picked up the smash, leaving the commentators to talk about how much glass was around their feet.
