Angry Australian batter throws bat, gloves and helmet in air after getting run out at non-striker's end: Watch

Claremont’s Jarrod Kaye is a famous cricketer after his antics against New Norfolk in a grade match went viral on social media. Kaye got furious after being run out at the non-striker's end by spinner Harry Booth. Norfolk went to win the Southern Cricket Association First Grade final by 49 runs.

As soon as the umpire raised his finger after consultation with the square-leg umpire, Kaye threw away his helmet before throwing away his bat with a lot of force. He then turned around to say some angry words to the umpire and Booth.

He then got away with his right glove before kicking it towards the boundary. The left glove was the last equipment launched by him in the air. As he walked off, a few of Claremont players and support staff entered the ground to protest against Umpire's contentious decision.

Batting first, New Norfolk posted 263 runs on the board for the loss of seven wickets in 50 overs. Vice-captain Harry Booth (63) and Jason Rigby (67) scored a fifty each. However, it was Thomas Briscoe's unbeaten 22-ball 37 that provided impetus to the New Norfolk's innings.

For Claremont CC, Trent Graham (3/40) was the most successful bowler. He was ably supported by Matthew Carr who picked two wickets for 32 runs.

In reply, Claremont were bundled out for 214 runs. At one stage, they were reeling at 83 for 6 when Jarrod Kaye (43) and Rick martin (70) forged together a crucial 48-run stand for the seventh wicket.

But Claremont’s chances to win got over with Kaye’s dismissal at the non-striker end by Booth. Jeremy Nichols (4/32), Thomas Briscoe (3/43), Jamie Maddox (1/22) and Nathan Rice (1/41) were among the wicket-takers for New Norfolk.
