England cricketer Jason Roy brutally takes down the umpire by accident

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.

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.

Thankfully, however, Wilson was ok.
