The 2nd match of the 3 match ODI series between Team India and the Zimbabwe cricket team is currently on at the Harare Sports Club ground in Harare. Team India won the toss and opted to bowl first. There was only change in the Indian team after the 1st match win with Deepak Chahar dropped for Shardul Thakur.
After their top order dismantled in the first match of the series, Zimbabwe took a cautious start to the game. So cautious that they scored just 20 runs in 8 overs. But then, Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj struck first blow for Zimbabwe.
While it was a brilliant ball from Siraj, the most of the credit for the wicket goes to the man behind the stumps, Sanju Samson, who had to fly behind the stumps to take the catch.
While the ball nicked Zimbabwe opener Kaitano’s bat, Samson was going towards his left but then had to change his way and made a dive towards the right to take a fantastic catch. The video of the same has gone viral on social media.
Talking about the match, as of writing this, Zimbabwe have scored 123 runs from 31 overs and have lost 6 wickets already. Shardul Thakur has taken 2 wickets while 1 each for Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav and Deepak Hooda.
