THE Duchess of Cambridge creased up again by playing cricket for a second time on tour in Pakistan.

Kate, 37, had children in fits of laughter as she feigned injury after being hit on the neck with a ball bowled by husband William, also 37.

The duke said: “She’s my wife, so I can just about get away with it.”

The cricket match came as the couple ended their tour in Lahore by visiting the SOS Village, which caters for more than 150 orphans.

Wills also acted as umpire and praised a fielder who caught Kate out.

But he admitted: “I don’t know much about cricket, but I love football.”

Both Wills and Kate also got stuck in with a game at the National Cricket Academy earlier this week.

It wasn't the first time Kate has shown off her cricketing skills, having worn high heels for a game in New Zealand in 2014 and once again during a trip to India in 2016.

Prince William though perhaps looked more at ease when he stepped up to the crease, managing to score a six off one ball.
