WATCH: Comedy of errors by Sri Lankans, Mohammed Shami survives run out scare

A huge mix up took place between Indian batters Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami when they were batting together. 

It was the 125th over of the Indian innings and left-arm pacer Vishwa Fernando was bowling for Sri Lanka. Jadeja got a half-tracker from him and he smashed it to mid-wicket region. The pair took a single and then both looked interested for a double. Jadeja called for a double but pulled back the next second. However, Shami had almost reached the non-striker's end by then. 

Fernando collected the ball at the non-striker's end but dislodged the bails unware of where Shami was. If he was aware he could have easily thrown it to batting end and Shami would have been run out by some miles. 

Here's what happened:

As you can see, the wicket-keeper is stunned by what Fernando did there and so were other Sri Lankans on the field.
