The umpire felt the ball hit Brathwaite’s gloves and went to the wicketkeeper, so he was given out. Brathwaite was not happy with this decision. He was walking back towards the dugout. Meanwhile, he took off his helmet a short distance from the dugout and let the bat fly like a ball. The helmet fell directly outside the boundary line and parts of it broke. When Brathwaite hit with the helmet, the player in front also went too far, the support staff present had to step aside. His video is very viral.
