The veteran Indian all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja has always been known to be one of the most effective fielders of the Indian team in modern day cricket. On Tuesday, during the second ODI of the five-match series against Australia at the VCA stadium in Nagpur, he pulled off another brilliant fielding display which resulted in a much-needed wicket of Peter Handscomb to India.

Earlier on the game, the Australian skipper, Aaron Finch decided to bowl first after winning the toss. While, the Indian skipper, Virat Kohli decided not to make any changes in the squad, the visitors have made a couple of changes to their playing XI as Nathan Lyon and Shaun Marsh have come in place of Jason Behrendorff and Ashton Turner.

On the other hand, the Nagpur pitch is looking good for the spinners. In fact, Indian skipper Virat Kohli was looking to bat first only and had no regrets of losing the toss. India currently leads the ongoing five-match series as they had won the first match by six wickets.

In the first innings, India got bundled out for 250 with the help of a fine century from Kohli. Chasing the target of 251, the Aussies were reeling at a score of 167/4 in the 37th over and Jadeja pulled off a magic moment.

Mohammed Shami was bowling the 38th over of the game and on the third ball of the over, the bowler bowled a short pitch delivery and Handscomb pressed it to the right of backward point and called his partner through for a quick single. However, it turned out t be a mistake as the fielder at backward point was Jadeja. He swooped onto the ball like lightning and hurls down the stumps at the non-striker’s end with a fiercely powerful, flat no-bounce throw. Handscomb was really hurrying, but no batsman is quicker than the ball came from the hands of Jaddu.
