The veteran Indian wicket-keeper, Dinesh Karthik, who is playing for India C in the final of Deodhar Trophy against India B, took a stunning one-handed catch while diving to his left to send India B skipper Parthiv Patel back to the pavilion on Monday. In the ninth over, Ishan Porel bowled a good length delivery that took the outside edge of Parthiv Patel’s bat and the ball went flying into the hands of Dinesh Karthik.

Karthik’s stunning catch was appreciated by fans on Twitter. One of the fans tweeted: “And people call him over aged..his time is over..he is 34…but the truth is that still he can fly like a bird like in 2007 where he took the stunner to dismiss smith… @DineshKarthik take a bow”.

India B had a forgettable start as they lost both their openers inside the first 10 overs. Ishan Porel, who accounted for both the openers, picked up his second five-wicket haul in List A cricket. Apart from him, Jalaj Saxena and Axar Patel picked up a wicket each. For India B, the youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal and Kedar Jadhav scored half-centuries while Vijay Shankar also chipped in with a quick knock of 45 off 33 balls.
