In a thrilling moment of athletic brilliance, Indian fielders Ravindra Jadeja and Sai Sudharsan combined to pull off a spectacular relay catch that dismissed England바카라™s Jamie Smith on Day 3 of the first Test at Headingley.
The stunning fielding effort came in the 80th over of England바카라™s first innings, just before the second new ball was due. Jamie Smith, who was batting confidently on 40, attempted to pull a short delivery from Prasidh Krishna towards deep square leg. What looked like a potential boundary was quickly turned into a wicket by Jadeja바카라™s quick reflexes and presence of mind.
Positioned right near the boundary rope, Jadeja managed to take the catch but realised his momentum would carry him over the line. In a split-second decision, he lobbed the ball mid-air to Sai Sudharsan, who was perfectly placed to complete the catch just inside the boundary line. The relay effort drew loud cheers from teammates and spectators alike, highlighting India바카라™s sharp fielding prowess.
The dismissal provided India a crucial breakthrough at a time when England were steadily closing in on their first-innings deficit. Despite England바카라™s resilient batting, India바카라™s bowlers had to toil hard for wickets.
Jasprit Bumrah completed his five-wicket haul after dismissing the last two batters. Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna took two and three wickets respectively. India managed to restrict England to 465 runs and get a six-run lead in the second innings.
