NEW DELHI: Alzarri Joseph’s frustration boiled over during an intense Caribbean Premier League 2024 match between the Saint Lucia Kings and the Guyana Amazon Warriors.
In the ninth over, with Guyana closing in on victory, Joseph bowled to Hetmyer, who backed away and punched the ball straight back to the bowler.
In a moment of visible frustration, Joseph, who had clinched Azam Khan‘s scalp in the previous ball, grabbed the ball and angrily hurled it down towards the batter’s end, followed by a sharp stare at Hetmyer.

With just nine runs needed, Hetmyer stepped back and unleashed a monstrous six over long-on, almost sealing the game in style for the Guyana Amazon Warriors.
