A former Albion skipper was in the firing line as Sussex batsman Phil Salt went on the attack last night.

And Sky Sports picked it up for fans at home to enjoy.

Seagulls supporters were quickly on to Twitter to point out the identity of the man who was unable to catch another big hit from the Sussex Sharks opener.

Bruno moved quickly out of his deck chair, but not quickly enough to pull off a catch.

Instead, he appeared to take a whack on the arm or hand.

 

 

No one was getting Salt out as he fired five sixes and five fours in his 72 not out from just 44 deliveries.

ALBION HOPE FOR GOOD NEWS FROM BORIS JOHNSON

Bruno, now an Albion coach, was all smiles afterwards as he enjoyed the Sharks’ nine-wicket win over Hampshire with his family.

The Catalan has grown to enjoy cricket, particularly the short format, during his nine years living in England.
