A cricketer smashed his dad's car windscreen after hitting a six while trying to secure a win for his team.

Afterwards he saw the funny side and added: " It's just one of those things. "

Wednesday was the third and final day of the rain-affected match against Oxfordshire at Eastnor and Nigel: " When I got there, [I] pulled up on the boundary, I was there about 10 Minutes , I was the only car there actually on that side. "

With time running out for Herefordshire to chase their victory target of 182, Olly started going for the boundary and hit four sixes.

Watching The Last of them, Nigel said: " It came down with snow on it I think. "

The Ball hit the centre of his windscreen and it " made me jump" the batsman's father said.

Herefordshire coach Richard Skyrme said: " I don't know how many yards it is that side, but possibly 250 yards and to plonk it on your dad's windscreen has ended The Game on an amusing note. "

Nigel said: " I was sat in The Driver 's seat and I just waved out of The Window and Olly had his hand on his helmet in The Middle of The Pitch - and obviously it caused a lot of amusement to everyone. "

He Said all the players had then gone over to take pictures and, with little chance of a result, The Game ended soon afterwards with Herefordshire reaching 58-2 in 10. 2 overs.
