Yusuf Pathan has produced a stunning one-handed catch for Baroda in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Tournament against Goa and sent back the captain Darshan Misal on Friday. Although he failed to score and got out for a duck but kept his team in the hunt. He even out of the India squad since 2012. However, Yusuf’s brother, Irfan Pathan took to Twitter and shared the video of the catch. Soon after his tweet, Afghanistan captain, Rashid Khan, replied hilariously.
“Absolutely stunner @iamyusufpathan Bhai. Ye Pathan k hath hai thakur,” Rashid Khan tweeted.

In the match, Baroda won the toss and elected to bat in Vizag. Baroda were off to a poor start as they lost both their openers very cheaply. Swapnil Singh and Deepak Hooda then stitched a 53-run stand for the third wicket. In the process, Swapnil registered his maiden Twenty20 (T20) half-century.
