This hilarious incident happened during the game between India A and India C in the Deodhar Trophy. During the first innings, India A batsman Ankit Bawne walked out to bat with just one glove.

His teammates finally gave him the other glove and the batsman walked towards the crease. But the innings did not last long as he dismissed for the golden duck. The incident took place during the 45th over of the first innings when the skipper Dinesh Karthik was dismissed for 32 runs.

However, the young sensation, Shubman Gill was in full flow as he smashed the opponent bowlers all over the park. He added 121 runs along with Ishan Kishan for the fourth wicket partnership.
