The Indian team played two matches on Wednesday 9 October. On one hand, the men's team faced Bangladesh, while the women's team faced Sri Lanka in the ongoing T20 World Cup in UAE. Team India's dominance was seen in both these matches. The men's team won against Bangladesh by 86 runs. Whereas the women's team defeated Sri Lanka by 82 runs. During this, two excellent catches were seen, which won the hearts of the fans. Hardik Pandya took a surprising catch in Delhi. But that paled in comparison to Radha Yadav's full length diving catch in UAE.

Pandya and Radha Yadav's magic

Batting first, the Indian team had given a target of 222 runs to Bangladesh in the second T20 match. In response to this, Bangladesh team had already scattered. He had lost 6 wickets for 86 runs only. Then in the 14th over, Hardik Pandya was brilliant in fielding. Rishad Hussain hit a long hit on the ball of Varun Chakraborty. On this, Pandya ran 27 meters and caught the ball going for a six with one hand. However, he was trying with two hands. For a moment it seemed that the ball would leave his hand, but the ball did not leave his hand.

Athleticism at its best!

However, this catch of his was nothing to women's team player Radha Yadav. His catch is being discussed a lot. Radha took a surprising catch. ICC has compared her catch with a catch by Travis Head. Actually, Vishami Gunaratne had tried to hit a big shot on the very second ball of the first over. To take advantage of the power play, he tried to hit from the crease, due to which the ball rose high in the air at a short distance from the circle. Radha, who came as a substitute, was standing at the point. She turned back and started running. He kept his eyes on the ball till the end and finally caught the ball with a full length dive. The audience was surprised to see this. This catch of his is also viral on social media.
