The ongoing Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024 has been quite entertaining for the audience, with all sorts of exciting moments in almost every contest. In the recent game between Barbados Royals vs Antigua and Barbuda Falcons, Alick Athanaze was run out but in an unfortunate manner. He collided with Quinton de Kock while coming to take a run.

Both batters ran to take a run and didn't even realize that they were coming onto each other. Because of the confusion, they collided. Athanaze was running from the non-striker end and failed to complete the run as Sam Billings directly hit the stumps, he had to go back to the pavilion. Moreover, Alick was a set batter, batting on 34 runs off 29 balls including three boundaries and one six. 

The Falcons scored 176 runs in the first innings, where top-order batters wreaked havoc on the bowlers. Justin Greaves scored an unbeaten 61 runs off 52 balls, while Sam Billings scored 56 runs off 43 balls. In the second innings, it rained heavily, and the match resumed after a while, but the pouring started again, and hence, the result was declared as per the DLS method, where the Royals were leading by 10 runs.
