A malfunctioned spider cam became the talk of the day in the second test between India and New Zealand at Wankhede Stadium
During the fourth innings of the Black Caps who have been given a target of 540 runs to victory, the spider cam came close to the ground and refused to move.
Perplexed by this, Indian players took turns to personally meet the cam and poke fun at it.
Mohammed Siraj, Bharat, Shreyas Iyer could be seen approaching the cam first then arrived Ravichandran Ashwin who could be seen playing with broadcasting equipment.
However, the skipper Kohli decided to join the party and gave the lens a quick knock gesturing it to return to its original place. All of this was captured in videos and photos and later on circulated around social media platforms.
Notably, the minor inconvenience also led to early tea being taken as New Zealand were 13/1 in 4 overs on Day 3.
