• An unfortunate incident played out on television during an ICC T20 World Cup group match in Australia
• During the West Indies encounter with Scotland, a toddler was seen hanging on the railings of the Bellerive Oval in Hobart
• Suddenly, he tumbled over them as his dad reacted a second too late, watching on as his son fell a short distance

A shocking viral video from the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia has gone viral, showing the hazards of adult supervision over children.

During the group qualifiers match between the West Indies and Scotland, a young boy is seen gambolling on the railings of the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. In what feels like forever packed into a moment, the child then falls over.

In the background, a person who appears to be his father reacts a little too late in rushing over to grab him, before jumping over the railing to rescue the boy.

There were no indications about the condition of the toddler at the time of this report, though assumptions are that he escaped unharmed.

The response to the video was of concern mixed with typically dry Australian humour.

"Hope all is well. I’m not in Hobart for this one, but understand that the kid is thankfully ok."

"We should also check that the Dad is still with us"

As reported by Sports Brief, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have had to defend their team selection after many felt that they lacked experience in the middle order.

PCB chief Ramiz Raja has now defended the team selection, saying that there were limited options when it came to selecting players.

Raja explained:

“It’s not like we have Lionel Messi sitting on the bench and instead picked a worthless player in the team. We have limited options.”
