Cricketers playing football during a practice session is a common sight, but a footballer playing cricket and hitting massive sixes is not a usual on any menu.

England cricket stars Stuart Broad and Moeen Ali took a tour to Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur's training centre on Thursday. There the two cricketers met England's rising footballers Harry Kane and Tom Carroll.

After exchanging their jerseys, Broad and Ali took part in a football drill and this prompted the Spurs duo Kane and Carroll to try their hands and some fun with the cricket bat and ball.

While Carroll took the ball, Kane accepted his teammate's challenge.

Carroll bowled a short ball and as a result he was whacked over the mid-wicket boundary -- balcony of the Spurs training centre in this case -- for a massive six.

Kane, who is the top-scorer with 25 goals so far this EPL season, is set to become the highest-paid player in the history of the club. Spurs are keen to award the 22-year-old striker with a lucrative 100,000 pounds-per-week salary.

This comes after many top European clubs, including Manchester United, showed interest in roping in Kane, but now it seems that the Spurs management is desperate to have another go at the trophy next season after a close miss this time.
