Australian cricket player catches ball in groin, needs teammate’s help to remove it

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Wicketkeeper Brad Haddin showed some serious composure during Australia’s test series against the West Indies when he caught a ball between his upper thighs -- okay, let’s be honest here, it was his groin.

Haddin waited until his catch was awarded, but then he had a problem: He couldn’t retrieve the ball thanks to his keeper gloves. Thankfully teammate Steve Smith was there to give him a gentle hand in a delicate place and rearranged his ball.
