A video of out-of-favour West Indies all-rounder Carlos Brathwaite is going viral on social media. The clip that is being surfaced has put Brathwaite in a poor light as the player could be seen smashing his helmet with his bat after being unhappy over a dismissal at George Town. The incident took place during the Qualifier 1 match between Brathwaite's side New York Strikers and Grand Cayman Jaguars at Max60 Caribbean 2024. Brathwaite resorted to the act after facing a controversial dismissal.
A short ball from Joshua Little hit Brathwaite's shoulder before being caught behind the stumps. The ball seemingly didn't make any contact with the bat but the umpire raised his finger over an appeal for a caught behind.
While walking back to the pavilion, a furious Brathwaite hit his helmet out of the park using his bat, before throwing the willow as well after nearing the dugout.

While Hales decorated his innings with four boundaries, Raza slammed one four and three hits over the fence.
