One last chance… Hardik Pandya… Long off… Long off… Long off… Suryakumar Yadav took the most important catch of his career.
These were the words of commentator Jatin Sapru Pathan. When Suryakumar Yadav caught David Miller on the first ball of the last over of the India-South Africa World Cup final.
Surya took the catch at long off and tossed the ball in the air and himself went out of the boundary line and then returned and finished the catch. This catch of Surya made India T-20 World Champion after 17 years.
Next we will talk about some such catches, which made Team India win the World Cup…
1. Miller out on Suryakumar’s juggling catch, India won
In the final match of the T-20 World Cup, South Africa had to score 16 runs on the last 6 balls and the most dangerous batsman of this format, David Miller, was at the crease. In such a situation, both the teams had equal chances to win.
Hardik Pandya bowled a low full toss on the first ball and Miller played short at long off. At first it seemed that the ball would go outside the boundary line, but it did not happen and Suryakumar took a juggling catch while running. He tossed the ball in the air and went out of the boundary and returned and completed the catch. Here the victory of the Indian team was almost certain.
2. Amazing catch by Sreesanth on Joginder’s ball.
India won the first T-20 World Cup in 2007. Team India defeated Pakistan by 5 runs. In Johannesburg, Pakistan needed 13 runs in the last over and 7 runs were scored on the first 2 balls. Now Pakistan had to score 6 runs on 4 balls.
Joginder bowled a good length ball outside the off stump and Misbah Ul Haq played a scoop shot. The ball went in the air and Sreesanth, standing at third man, caught it. This catch of Sreesanth won India its first T20 World Cup.
3. India won its first World Cup with Kapil Dev’s catch, defeated champion West Indies.
India won the first World Cup in 1983, that too by defeating two-time consecutive champions West Indies. Kapil Dev’s catch played an important role in that victory. Kapil sent veteran batsman Vivian Richards to the pavilion. Before Vivi got out, it seemed that West Indies would easily win this match.
The Caribbean team, which was chasing the target of 184 runs at Lord’s, had scored 57 runs for two wickets and Viv Richards was thrashing the Indian bowlers. He had scored 33 runs on 28 balls. Richards tried to play a big shot on the leg side on the ball of Madan Lal, but the ball went to the boundary at square leg. Here Kapil Dev took that catch while running backwards. This proved to be the turning point of the match.
