Bystander delivers furious X-rated rant at cricketer after massive six lands on his car

A club cricketer in Australia was the unsuspecting recipient of an X-rated rant from a furious bystander after launching a huge six that hit a car.

In a one-day game between Toombul and Wynnum-Manly in Queensland grade cricket, Preston White smashed a full-toss from Wynnum-Manly bowler Joshua Fraser back over his head for a massive six.

Unfortunately, the ball happened to land on the car of a resident living near the Ken Mackay Oval and they were absolutely furious with White, who previously represented state side Queensland at age-group level.

As the ball leaves his bat, a fan can be heard saying "Ah, that's massive". A few seconds later, a massive thunk can be heard as the ball lands on someone's car.

The car owner then furiously screams "Who the f*** just hit my car?", before someone replies "It's a cricket ground".

"I f***ing live here," responds the owner. "Are you going to f***ing pay for the damage?"

The hilarious clip has gone viral on social media, with one fan joking: "Out of anyone it's the bowler who that bloke should be after. That ball got exactly what it deserved". Another added: "if you willingly live next to a cricket ground and willingly park your car there then thats on you mate, sorry."

"Who says Australians have no culture," joked another. "I did this to myself once," recalled BBC Test Match Special commentator Aatif Nawaz. "First week of having a brand new car as well. The call to the insurance company was not fun. Be careful where you park boys and girls".

White ended up making an impressive 56 off just 24 balls in an innings that included six boundaries, with his Toombul side winning the match by 28 runs. Australia international Matthew Renshaw also played in the game, top scoring with 74 after opening the batting for Toombul.
