Vine: Incredible luck for Ed Joyce as ball lashes into Irish wicket but bails stay on

Blessed

Sean Nolan

Hopefully the lads can turn this stroke of luck into a win

Ed Joyce may just be the luckiest batsman in the game. After a poor first 10 overs, where only 35 was scored while chasing UAE’s total of 278, Joyce survived this remarkable moment.

The ball hit the stumps, and the bails flew up and lit up, but they did not fall off, so Joyce survives, much to the dismay of bowler Amjad Javed.
