This is the sort of thing you don't dream of as a kid when you think of one day playing in the World Cup.

But poor Yasir Shah was left red-faced this morning despite his team's win over South Africa. The Pakistan international lost his trousers - yes, he lost his trousers - mid-game. Well, he didn't lose them but they dropped around his knees as he dove at the boundary in a desperate bid to prevent a 4. Shah took off after big a hit from Shahid Afridi and, as he scrambled to prevent a boundary, he clattered into the hoardings and saw his trousers come loose before realising that it was all for nothing as the South Africans celebrated. Good day for tighty whities though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFExjqlMU94
