Goat invades KP's leg-side run-fest 

It so happened that Kevin Pietersen was enjoying his batting while playing cricket with a few village kids. But, as he was taking a stance, a goat happened to pass by which caused a mini interruption. Nonetheless, as soon as the goat was out of the frame, he took his stance as the kid bowled to him and he ended up playing what looked like a 'Helicopter Shot'. KP had posted this video on social media as well. Watch it right here.

The fans came forward to have some fun after having watched the goat playing a spoilsport to the former English skipper's brilliant batting display. Here are some of the reactions.
