'That is ridiculous': Brilliant bowls shot lights up World Indoor Championships

'About six inches between the two bowls, so there is just room,' were the words of England's Greg Harlow as his partner Nick Brett approached a shot.

Harlow's words were met with laughter by the audience at the World Indoor Bowls Championships.

However, what followed was a stunning piece of skill, as Brett produced a spectacular shot sliding between the two red balls surrounding the jack.

The English duo went on to win the tie with Scotland's Paul Foster and Alex Marshall 10-6, 6-8, 2-1.

Commentator David Corkill remarked: "The way Greg asked him to play that you'd think he was three feet away from it."

When Nick released his bowl along the green it looked a mile off. Until suddenly it started to curl towards the waiting jack and the crowd fell silent.

Corkill went on: "Well he's very close to splitting the two red balls and getting to the jack. That's what the target is." And, in a move that seemed impossible just seconds earlier, the bowl rolled elegantly in between the tight gap - making perfect contact with the jack.

The amazed commentator then said: "Oh look at this. That is ridiculous. That is just so good it is ridiculous. What a ball. That was outrageous."

The crowd erupted into applause as the bowl stopped and a clearly relieved Brett watches on, probably in amazement at his own abilities.
