Game changed by one catch..!?
india won by 2 runs..!
In the first
t20 match against
sri lanka, a catch by
indian team player
ishan kishan changed the course of the game. Batting first, the
indian team scored 162 runs at the end of 20 overs.
deepak Hooda scored 41 runs and
ishan kishan scored 37 runs. After this, Nisangka scored 1 run and
dhananjay de Silva scored 8 runs for the Sri Lankan team who came into the field with a target of 163 runs to win.
After this, the pair of Asalanga and Mendis played tremendously and added runs. When Asalanga scored 12 runs, Umran Malik bowled a toss. Then the ball went in the direction of Pine Lake. There Harsal
patel tried to take the catch. Then, wicketkeeper
ishan kishan came running from his place and signaled Harsal
patel not to catch him in the same job. He then predicted the ball's landing spot and placed it after that. As wicketkeepers use gloves, they are suitable for catching.
But running that far and making a catch is not an ordinary thing.
indian players celebrate this catch by Ishan Kishan. Captain Hrithik Pandya heaped praise on Ishan Kishan. In today's match, the fielding of the
indian players was excellent. Needing 4 runs off the last 1 ball,
sri lanka lost all their wickets by taking only one run. Mavi took 4 wickets and Umran Malik and Harsal
patel took 2 wickets each in the
indian team.
