One of the first names to strike for the fans when they hear fielding, Mohammad Kaif showered words of praise on Ravindra Jadeja after taking the spectacular catch on Day 2 at Christchurch’s Hagley Oval. It was a one-handed stunner from Jadeja, which ended the threatening partnership of Kyle Jamieson and Neil Wagner.

India’s struggles against the tail had come to the fore once again as Jamieson and Wagner put on 51 runs for the ninth wicket. Hanuma Vihari hadn’t helped matters by putting Wagner down at fine leg and that is when Mohammed Shami bowled another bouncer at Wagner.

Terrific stuff from Ravindra Jadeja: Mohammad Kaif

Wagner played a pull shot on Shami’s delivery quite well and the ball was looking set to sail over the deep square leg boundary. However, Jadeja came running in from the square leg to pull off the sensational catch with just one hand.

Thus, Jadeja himself opened up on claiming a one-handed stunner.

Tweeting on the same, Mohammad Kaif stated it was top stuff from the southpaw and also gave a couple of lively tags to him.

His tweet read “Sir Jadeja for a reason! Jadeja Airlines, flying high! Terrific stuff,” Kaif tweeted.
