A rare and unwanted moment occurred in the 2nd Test match between Australia and South Africa. The African spearhead, Anrich Nortje got knocked down by the spider camera and suffered injury on his shoulder.
Notably, this happened in between the two overs and thus was not broadcasted on the live TV. Nortje was just walking when a Spider Cam from behind hit his shoulder. He was knocked to the ground as a webcam crashed into him.

The incident was later broadcasted on the television, and the commentator James Brayshaw was heard saying “Nortje walking quietly to his spot… BANG, that should not be happening.”
Moreover, Nortje received medical treatment immediately on the ground and he continued to stay on the field as South Africa tried to stop dangerous looking Aussies.
Earlier, David Warner scored a double ton before getting retired hurt. Also, Cameron Green has to walk back due to a finger injury. The hosts were 386/3 before the stumps and are already leading by 197 runs.
