The incident occurred in the third over of the second innings as Carmi le Roux bowled to Seattle Orcas batter Ryan Rickleton from over the wicket. Carmi le Roux delivered a fuller ball, pitching it just outside the off-stump line. Rickleton struck the ball with full force, sending it straight past the bowler. Before Carmi le Roux could react, the ball hit him on the head.
