#5 When Bowden flashed the first ever Red card in cricket
In what was undoubtedly one of the funniest moments ever in cricket, Bowden made history by flashing out the first ever red card in cricket history to Glenn McGrath, who with this incident, itched his name in the history books of cricket as well.
In a T20 encounter between New Zealand and Australia, NZ required 45 runs off the last ball. Realising that it was an impossible chase for the Kiwis, Glenn McGrath jokingly tried to emulate the infamous underarm delivery by Trevor Chappell in 1981 that created a huge controversy back then. Bowden, certainly not impressed with this violation of the ICC code of conduct, took out the red card and flashed it to McGrath in his own epic style. McGrath was seen laughing and so were the other players, commentators and spectators.
