It all happened in the 49th over of the Indian innings when a kite landed on the field, causing a brief delay before the end of India’s innings. And as soon as the kite landed on the field, David Warner picked it up and handed it to the umpire. The southpaw was seen pointing at the sky as it looked like the thread of the kite got entangled in one of the Spidercam wires. Post the match, David Warner took to Instagram to post a picture of himself holding the kite and pointing towards the sky as he wrote, “Caption this.”
