WATCH: Rovman Powell places his physique on the road in an try to keep away from a collision with a toddler

West Indies captain Rovman Powell needed to stake his whole physique to keep away from colliding with a toddler on the boundary line through the second T20 match in opposition to South Africa on the Supersport Park in Centurion.

The incident occurred within the third over of the innings when opener Quinton de Kock timed the ball in the direction of the boundary ropes as a ball header.

Powell, who was chasing the ball, was about to dive in when he realized he will need to have taken two kids with him.

Charles was ably supported by Kyle Mayers (51) in a 135-run second-wicket partnership, adopted by Romario Shepherd’s 41 not out.

South Africa began with a bang in reply and made one other T20 file by scoring 150 runs with out loss within the first 10 overs.

De Kock took 43 balls to achieve his century, however went straight after ending a gap partnership of 152 with Reeza Hendricks, who scored 68 off 28 balls.

The pair managed to scale back the required run price, permitting skipper Aiden Markram (38 not out) handy his aspect a exceptional victory with seven balls to spare.
