THIS is the moment Rahkeem Cornwall was comically run out in the very first ball of the innings in the Caribbean Premier League.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old, who has been dubbed the "heaviest" pro player, seemed to run with barely any urgency in the hilarious clip. <\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

Cornwall's half-hearted run seemed to set the tone for the match that resulted in the Barbados Royals being crushed by the St Lucia Kings. <\/p>\n

Matthew Ford delivered the bowl to the Antiguan all-rounder, which saw him send the ball flying towards Chris Sole.<\/p>\n

Cornwall's partner Kyle Mayers had tried to steal a single after it went to the short-fine leg and the Scottish bowler fumbled the catch.<\/p>\n

As the Sole chased it across the field, Mayers took off leaving Cornwall to begin his run – but he barely got halfway by the time the ball was retrieved. <\/p>\n

Just seconds after beginning his slow saunter, the stocky player seemed to forget he was chasing a target of over 200 runs. <\/p>\n

Before Cornwall could even think to pick up the pace, Forde smashed the wicket with a stunning direct hit that left the crowd screaming. <\/p>\n

After watching the stumps collapse at the non-striker's end, he bailed on the rest of the run and didn't even try to make the crease. <\/p>\n

The stunned commentators could be heard saying: "You've got to slip it into second gear at least! Mate!"<\/p>\n

Cornwall was then seen strolling at an even slower speed as the reality of his snail-pace performance sunk in. <\/p>\n

Fans joked that he looked like he was merely "having a walk in the park" rather than competing in the CPL. <\/p>\n

Another said: "Tell me this video is edited? What a bizarre way to get out!"<\/p>\n

A third said: "Got to respect the way Rahkeem Cornwall accepts his fate in this run out."<\/p>\n

And a fourth added: "Rahkeem Cornwall is a fantastic cricketer but this is f***ing hilarious."<\/p>\n

The Barbados Royals went on to only achieve 147 runs, leaving the St Lucia Kings to reign supreme with wickets falling at regular intervals.<\/p>\n

Cornwall did not bowl in the game – but even his contribution with the bat did little to impress sports fans.<\/p>\n

He boasts a height of 6 feet and 6 inches, and being 22 stone makes him the heaviest cricketer in international cricket.<\/p>\n

The talented spinner has previously spoken out about his weight after receiving criticism from pundits, former stars and supporters. <\/p>\n

He previously told ESPN: "I can't change my body structure. I can't say that I'm too tall or too big.<\/p>\n

"Everybody is not going to be short, everybody is not going to be slim. All I can do is go out there, back myself and show my skill.<\/p>\n
