Danny Morrison

Danny Morrison is arguably one the of best entertainers among the currently active commentators in cricket. He is famous in the cricketing fraternity for his amazing funny and out-of-the-box activities on the field during his stint as a broadcaster. Apart from that, the former star New Zealand pacer keeps hitting the headlines for his amazing antics and a different presentation style.

Morrison happened to do the same kind of antic in a pre-match conversation with his co-broadcaster Erin Holland before a recent match between Quetta Gladiators and Islamabad United. The 57-year-old, out of nowhere; lifted Erin Holland in his lap during the pre-match show and then released her after making a circular round on his spot.

Holland herself shared the video of this incident from her official Twitter handle and captioned it as, โ€œLove ya, uncle Danny Morrison.โ€

Here's the video:

The video immediately started making rounds on social media and drew a lot of reactions from cricket fans. A few of the fans arenโ€™t that much pleased with this act by Morrison, whereas another section of the fans found it funny and also related it to Hollandโ€™s husband and Aussie cricketer Ben Cutting.

Here's how fans reacted:

Speaking of the match between Quetta Gladiators and Islamabad United, the latterโ€™s skipper Shadab Khan won the toss and asked Gladiators to bat first. Batting first, Sarfaraz Ahmedโ€™s men posted a decent total of 179 runs for the loss of six wickets in the allotted 20 overs courtesy of Mohammad Nawazโ€™s half-century (52 runs off 44 balls with six boundaries). The veteran batter Umar Akmal also played a quick cameo of 43 runs off just 14 balls with two boundaries and five sixes with the wood.

While chasing the target, Islamabad United managed to cross the finishing line in 19.3 overs for the loss of eight wickets to win the match by two wickets. Number three batter Colin Munro played a blistering knock of 63 runs off just 29 balls with five boundaries and four sixes to his name. Other than him, wicketkeeper-batter Azam Khan and Faheem Ashraf also contributed with the knocks of 35 and unbeaten 39 runs respectively.

Islamabadโ€™s pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi won the โ€˜player of the match award for his amazing bowling by scalping three wickets by conceding 25 runs in his spell of four overs.
