File this one firmly under “If this were written in fiction, it would be dismissed as totally implausible” - in fact, it’s an unsurpassable example. Similar to this thread: [Weird, strange coincidences that sound like fiction but happened in sport](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/weird-strange-coincidences-that-sound-like-fiction-but-happened-in-sport/987228) (albeit doesn’t quite fit as not a coincidence as such). Amazing, thanks for sharing. Imagine being the not out batsman at the other end!
