In the second T20I match of the ongoing three-match series against England in Cardiff, India skipper lost the toss and asked to bat first and Eoin Morgan’s decision gave him rich rewards as the men in blue were down to 31/3 after the powerplay overs and they end up scoring 148/5 owing the knocks of Virat Kohli (47) and MS Dhoni (32).

Shikhar Dhawan takes a stunning catch

Coming in to chase, the hosts didn’t have the best of starts as they were down to 42/2 after the powerplay overs. However, the 14th over of the chase, Shikhar Dhawan pulled off a stunning catch to dismiss the English skipper Eoin Morgan off the bowling of Hardik Pandya.

It was the catch of the match by Gabbar and the Indian team became ecstatic after the dismissal. Hardik delivered a short ball off the leg stump and Morgan’s reflexes forced him to play the pull shot behind square leg. However, he failed to generate power in the shot as he was cramped for room. Dhawan, who was standing near the ropes, jumped into the air and stuck his hand out, and takes an excellent catch before falling over. Fans jump the fence to celebrate the wicket with Team India, but security takes them away soon after.

Here is the phenomenal catch of Dhawan:
