India National Cricket Team spinner Ravi Bishnoi has been a standout performer in the ongoing third match of the three-match series against the Sri Lanka National Cricket Team. The contest, held at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, has seen Bishnoi shine both with the ball and in the field, making significant contributions to India’s efforts.

After India managed to post a modest total of just 137 runs, their bowlers were under pressure to deliver, and Bishnoi has risen to the occasion. His disciplined bowling has kept the Sri Lankan batsmen in check, creating pressure and building crucial dot balls. However, it was his extraordinary fielding effort that truly highlighted his commitment and athleticism.

In the 17th over of Sri Lanka’s innings, bowled by Washington Sundar, Bishnoi’s brilliance in the field came to the fore. Wanindu Hasaranga, who had been promoted up the batting order, attempted to hit a full delivery around off-stump out of the stadium. Hasaranga got down on one knee to slog across the line but failed to connect properly, the ball soaring high but lacking the distance.

As the ball spiralled into the air, Bishnoi, positioned at deep backward square leg, made a decisive move. Sprinting to his left, he covered the ground quickly and executed a stunning Superman dive, catching the ball with both hands and securing a sensational dismissal. His catch not only removed the dangerous Hasaranga but also provided a much-needed breakthrough for India at a critical juncture in the match.

 

Bishnoi’s performance in this game underscores his growing importance to the Indian team, not just as a bowler but as an all-round fielder who can change the course of a match with his athleticism and sharp cricketing instincts. His efforts have been instrumental in India maintaining a tight grip on the game, keeping Sri Lanka under constant pressure and inching closer to a series victory.
