Brooke Halliday attempted to hit a delivery from Priya Mishra but mishit the ball, which went in the air. Radha sprinted back and executed a full-length dive, catching the ball cleanly before it could bounce away upon landing. Notably, it was her second stunning catch of the ongoing second ODI match.
