After get outclassed in the Pune ODI, the Indian team is currently locking horns with the Windies for the fourth ODI of the ongoing five-match series in Mumbai. After winning the toss, the Indian skipper, Virat Kohli decided to bat first and they dropped Rishabh Pant and Yuzvendra Chahal, as Ravindra Jadeja and Kedar Jadhav made a comeback. However, India set a mammoth total of 377/5 with the help of brilliant centuries from Rohit Sharma and Ambati Rayudu.
While chasing the huge target of 378, the Windies openers had a shaky start as they lost their first wicket in the start of the 5 over itself as they were reduced to 20/1. However, things took a drastic change for the visitors since then as they lost wickets in next 6 balls and credit for both the dismissals goes to the brilliant ground fielding by the Indian fielders as Kuldeep Yadav and Kohli pulled off two mind-boggling run-outs.
On the fourth bowl of the 5th over, Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled a length bowl on the stump to the in-form Shai Hope, who defended the ball off the back foot towards the mid-off, where Kuldeep picked the ball and threw the ball back towards the bowler’s end in one single motion. Hope made a desperate dive, but it got all in vain as Yadav smashed directly into the stumps and Hope had to depart on a duck.

A Similar kind of dismissal took place on the second ball of the next over bowled by Jasprit Bumrah, who bowled a length bowl on the 4th stumps line to Marlon Samuels and the batsman nudged it to the short cover where Kohli was standing. Virat casually reverse-flicked from cover, and the ball rolled onto the non-striker’s stumps, where Kieran Powell was looking for the single. Despite the fact that Kohli didn’t release the ball with the best of his abilities, his accuracy was second to none and as a result, Powell had to walk back to the pavilion.
