The SA vs WI 3rd T20I 2026 was marked by a rarity in cricket involving all-rounder Corbin Bosch, whose bat split in two during the final over's climax, with South Africa needing 9 off 2. Facing Shamar Joseph, Bosch attempted a heave over long-on, but his bat broke upon impact, with the handle remaining in his hands and the blade dangling by a thread. Rovman Powell dropped the catch, allowing the batters to attempt a double. However, umpires ruled a short run after replays showed Bosch failed to ground the handle of his bat behind the crease at the non-strikerâs end before turning. South Africa went on to lose the contest by six runs, needing an impossible 8 off 1. PAK vs AUS: Cameron Green's 'Chucking' Gesture Ignites Debate Over Pakistan Bowler Usman Tariq's Action.

South Africa needed 9 off 2 balls. Corbin Bosch broke his bat going for a boundary. They ran 2 but Bosch had to stretch his arm with a broken bat, carrying the handle in the other hand.
It ends up being a short run and SA left with 8 to get off the last ball.
