A bizarre incident was spotted on Saturday when a naked man run onto the field during first Test match between New Zealand and Pakistan at the Mount Maunganui.
Security appeared slow to react as the nude invader easily reached close to the cricket players and ran on the pitch with his hands on private parts during the live game.

A similar incident happened during ICC World Cup 2019 and it was coincidently the match of New Zealand but the opposite team was from England.
A streaker wearing nothing but a green hat invaded into the field, causing a delay in play. Around seven security guards managed to haul away him after covering his lower section with a shirt.
In today’s match, New Zealand were 222 for 3 at stumps on the opening day of first cricket test against Pakistan.
