In the ongoing test match between New Zealand and Bangladesh at Mount Maunganui, the Bangla tigers are close to a historic victory courtest of Bangladesh's solid batting performance. However, Bangladesh took a DRS review in the second innings of New Zealand, which has left the entire cricketing fraternity laughing in pieces. 

Bangladesh right-arm pacer Taskin Ahmed was bowling the 37th over of the New Zealand innings. With Ross Taylor on strike, Taskin bowled the 5th delivery full of length and with pace. Taylor worked it towards the covers comfortably. However, the Bangladesh team was appealing for a wicket!

Taskin Ahmed started the appeal and Bangladeshi players joined in rather half-heartedly. At the last second, Bangla captain Mominul signalled for the DRS review. In the replay, it was shown that even though the ball was close to the toe, it was still a bit away and the ball had hit the middle of the bat. 

This replay left commentators laughing, and now the video is being shared on social media sites as this has largely humoured the cricket fans around the world. Some fans are already terming it as the 'Worst review of the year' even though the year has just started!
