Suryakumar Yadav’s catch dropped

The match against America was at one time very exciting, but a catch dropped by Shubham Ranjane proved to be the biggest ‘turning point’ of this match. When Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav was playing on just 15 runs, Ranjane had a golden opportunity to send him to the pavilion on his own ball. Surya tried to flick a slower ball, but the ball took the top edge of the bat and bounced straight towards the bowler.

The match was overturned by a mistake

Shubham Ranjane had caught the ball in his hands by diving towards his front in the follow-through, but while hitting the ground, he lost control and the ball got scattered. Both Ranjane and Surya know each other well from the days of Mumbai cricket, so after this sacrifice of life, some words were also exchanged between the two on the field. However, Ranjane had no idea at that time how much this missed catch was going to cost his team.

Surya did wonders

After getting a lease of life, ‘Mr. 360’ started batting in his familiar style and destroyed the American bowlers. Surya played a captaincy inning of unbeaten 84 runs facing just 49 balls, in which attractive shots were seen in every corner of the field. Thanks to his explosive innings, the Indian team scored a challenging score of 161 runs in the stipulated 20 overs, which at one time seemed difficult.
