Najmul Hossain Shanto's Century Celebration Takes a Humorous Twist

A Comedic Interruption During Shanto's Milestone
During the first Test match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka at Galle International Stadium, Najmul Hossain Shanto's celebration for reaching a century took an unexpected and amusing turn. As he raised his bat in triumph, a throw from a fielder unexpectedly zoomed towards him. In a surprising moment, Shanto had to leap over the ball to avoid being struck, abruptly pausing his celebration. This clumsy yet entertaining incident had commentators laughing and fans sharing the clip across social media platforms. While it may have interrupted his moment of glory, it certainly added a light-hearted element to the match.
