The 27-year-old India A all-rounder Ramandeep Singh stunned the cricket world with his absolutely stupendous catch during the match against Pakistan Shaheens in the ACC Men's T20 Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024 on Saturday, October 19.
The high-profile match of the tournament between the Group B teams is currently underway at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground Oman Cricket (Ministry Turf 1).
Ramandeep Singh Takes A Blinder Against Pakistan
Ramandeep is undoubtedly one of the best fielders in Indian cricket at the moment, and he has displayed his heroics on the field while playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) as well as domestic cricket.
The 27-year-old, who plays for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), a few months back won the Catch of the Season Award in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL).
He bagged the award for his absolutely outrageous diving catch to dismiss the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) batter Arshin Kulkarni on May 5, 2024, at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Vihari Vajpayee International Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
Coming back to Ramandeep's catch in the Emerging Asia Cup 2024, the allrounder showcased his brilliance on the first ball of the 9th over during the second innings.
Left-arm spinner Nishant Sindhu bowled a length ball to the Pakistan Shaheens batter Yasir Khan, who tried to smash a boundary.
Khan made a good connection with the ball, and it looked like the ball would travel past the boundary line, but that was not the case as Ramandeep came flying out of nowhere and put in a dive to complete a stunning low catch.
Ramandeep's catch helped India get 3rd wicket. Yasir Khan was back in the hut after scoring 33 runs off 22 balls, with one four and 3 sixes.
