India is currently taking on Bangladesh in the second match of the ongoing ODI series. After losing the first match, the Men in Blue were looking strong, to begin with, in the second match at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.
Washington Sundar was outstanding in the early stages of the innings, taking three wickets. In the 17th over of the first innings, he took one of the most important wickets of the match, Shakib Al Hasan. However, he must have had his heart in his mouth as Shikhar Dhawan almost dropped a sitter.
On the other hand, Sundar fell fat on his chest as he closely watched Dhawan take the catch. He bowled a flighted delivery from around the wicket, and Shakib lined up for a slog sweep, which he edged high in the air. Shikhar moved to his left from the short third man, and the fielder at short fine leg went for it as well. They were about to collide when Shikhar caught it.
Here is the video of Shikhar Dawan’s catch
Funny catch by Shikhar Dhawan….

In the meantime, India took six wickets from Bangladesh’s batting lineup in quick succession. The Bangla Tigers were down by six wickets for a team score of 69 in 19 overs. However, the last match’s star performer Mehidy Hasan Miraz and former team captain Mahmudullah stitched a very important partnership.
Each finished with a half-century and added 148 runs for the seventh-wicket partnership. Umran Malik finally got the breakthrough with the wicket of Mahamudullah (77 runs in 96 balls) for a team score of 217 in the 47th over.
On the other hand, Hasan Miraz kept going despite suffering a blow to his right knee. He got the perfect support from Nasum Ahmed, who played an excellent cameo of 18 runs in 11 balls. Hasan Miraz went on to score his maiden century on the last ball of the innings. He stayed unbeaten on 100 in 83 balls that he faced to help his team reach a total of 271-7.
