What a way to celebrate your century

It was a good day for England cricketer Jason Roy on Saturday at Cardiff. Roy got a century for his country in England's World Cup match against Bangladesh. But how did he mark the achievement? By taking out the umpire - by accident, mind. https://twitter.com/MatthewSoakell/status/1137321924026150912 He made it to a hundred with a four. But as the ball passed over the boundary, Roy clearly wasn't looking where he was going and collided with umpire Joel Wilson, taking him off his feet. https://twitter.com/NHoultCricket/status/1137321306125426688 https://twitter.com/cricketworldcup/status/1137322883443826688 Thankfully, however, Wilson was ok. https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/1137305014806990848?s=20
