Has anyone ever seen a fielder throw down the stumps at both ends with one throw?

Question

In other words, the fielder throws the ball, which hits the stumps. It then richochets off and hits the stumps at the other end without any further intervention by any fielders.

Has anyone ever seen this happen?

Obviously there can only be at most one batsman run out if this happens.

Answer 3

I've never seen it happen but it did occur in a ODI between England and West Indies in 1976.

Wisden: 'Barlow was one of the principals in a freak incident which baffled players and spectators and defeated the umpires. When 71 he answered Knott's call for a single when the wicket-keeper played the ball to fine leg. Holding's throw hit the nearest stumps with Barlow well in and he immediately called Knott for a second. However, the ricochet beat Barlow down the pitch and hit the stumps at the bowler's end with both batsmen in mid-pitch, a fact confirmed by the television cameras. There was a pause of a few seconds before Clive Lloyd, seeing the bails off at both ends appealed to Umpire Jepson who gave not out.'
