In the midst of the second Test match between Australia and West Indies, all eyes focused on the versatile Aussie cricketer Cameron Green. Despite grappling with the challenges posed by a positive COVID-19 test, Green has demonstrated unparalleled commitment by actively participating in the red-ball game at Adelaide.

However, amidst the serious tone of the match, a lighthearted and cheeky incident managed to captivate the minds of cricket enthusiasts. The delightful moment involved Green and the skilled pacer Josh Hazlewood, adding a touch of humour to the intense contest.

The defining moment unfolded when Hazlewood successfully claimed the pivotal wicket of Caribbean skipper Kraigg Brathwaite. As the ecstatic crowd erupted in jubilation, the Aussie players leapt in celebration, caught up in the joy of the breakthrough. In a humorous turn of events, Hazlewood playfully shooed away Green, who was sprinting towards him to join in the revelry for the prized wicket.

This lighthearted moment showcased the camaraderie among the Australian players, adding a touch of fun to the match. Notably, Green’s separation from the team during the national anthems before the commencement of the game further underscored the impact of his recent bout with the virus on his involvement in the match at the Gabba.

Mentioning about the game, the formidable Aussie bowling attack wreaked havoc on the West Indies batting order right from the beginning. Brathwaite became the hosts’ first prey, departing after scoring just four runs. However, despite losing the wickets at constant intervals, Kavem Hodge and Joshua Da Silva held the anchor of their side, crafting a resilient 146-run partnership for the sixth wicket. Their efforts propelled the side to a score of 266/8 by the end of Day 1.
