Watch: Ravi Shastri makes EMBARRASSING mistake at presentation ceremony, Stokes lends helping hand

World Cup winner and star commentator Ravi Shastri may be regarded as one of best cricket pundits of all time, but he was left red faced on Sunday with a serious gaffe at the presentation ceremony of the third ODI between India and England at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

The former all-rounder was hosting the after match presentation and while interviewing Man of the Match, Ben Stokes, he asked the Englishman, "What was going through your mind when that ball went up in the last over, coming towards you?"

Incidentally, Shastri was referring to the fifth ball of the 50th over of Indian innings when middle order batsman Kedar Jadhav scooped a Chris Woakes delivery on the off-side and got caught, leaving the Men in Blue with six runs to get from one ball, which they finally didn't manage.

But the problem with Shastri's question was that, Stokes wasn't the man who was fielding on the off side and the Brit quickly corrected the usually witty and clever commentator saying, "Ah, it wasn't me, it was actually Sam Billings."

This video went viral on Twitter with someone jokingly putting it up with a caption which read, "Ravi Shastri is as prepared for taking interviews as I used to be before my exams. #INDvENG".

Stokes hit a brisk half-century and then picked up three crucial wickets to help England to a tense five-run win in the third and final ODI. It was a consolation victory for England and their first on their tour of India after they lost the five-test series 4-0 and both previous ODIs.
