A funny one

Playing in a cricket match I was standing at the non-striker's end. The batsman at the other end was batting on 99 and was quite anxious to get to his century. The bowler bowled a fast full toss ball and in his excitement the batsman hit him for a straight drive. I saw the ball coming at me like a runaway train. Realizing I couldn't get out of the way of the ball, I put my bat infront of the ball. The ball hit my bat and popped up for an easy catch to the bowler. To this day he hasn't forgiven me for getting him out at 99.

No, his team mate was out caught as it seems it didn't bat, then hit his bat and flew into the air.
