IND U-19 vs IRE U-19 | Twitter amazed after Murugan Abhishek’s flying catch receives medal-worthy gesticulation from teammates
Extraordinary efforts often catch the spectator's attention and it was no difference in the U-19 World Cup when Murugan Abhishek took a stunning catch to leave others in awe. The catch seemed so extraordinary that his teammates asked for a fielding medal, as it happens in the senior camp.
On the final delivery of the 13th over, Dhanush Gowda dished a back-of-a-length delivery wide outside the off-stump line, enticing the batter to free his hands. The left-hander tried to splash at it but found the barrier at short of cover-point region.
Abhishek flew to his left and grasped a one-handed stunner to leave Ireland reeling at 44/6. The reaction time for the grab was much less as it was hit very hard by McNally. However, the Tamil Nadu-bred youngster showcased extraordinary efforts, that left his teammates to gesture for a fielding medal, a token of appreciation that was successfully executed in each India match during the 2023 World Cup.
The Twitterverse followed this encounter closely and here’s how they could relate.
