Sai Sudharsan came into the second clash of the two-match series against the West Indies under pressure to put a huge score on the board. He was successful in overcoming the challenge on the opening day at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi as he smashed 87 runs with the help of 12 boundaries before getting dismissed to a fine ball that spun a lot off the surface.

His next job in the field for India was to do well at the first silly leg as Ravindra Jadeja was introduced into the attack. The left-handed opening batter of the opponents, John Campbell, smashed the first ball for a boundary before going for another sweep on the very next delivery. But he couldn’t believe his luck.

He swept hard at Sudharsan, who, while trying to save him, had the ball into his hands. As he took his eyes off the ball, Sudharsan kept the fingers pointed backward, and somehow the ball glued into the middle to complete the catch and send the southpaw back into the dressing room. Campbell couldn’t believe his luck.

When Sudharsan grabbed the catch, he didn’t react, and none of the fielders, along with the commentators, realized what exactly happened before the wicket-keeper, Dhurv Jurel, walked up to him to congratulate him. From the dressing room, the coaching group, including Morne Morkel and Gautam Gambhir, enjoyed the moment and clapped for the fielder.

Sudharsan took a huge blow on his little finger as the doctor rushed into the middle for medical treatment. The Chennai-born went off the field and was seen putting ice on the injured place. That was the only wicket the Blue Brigade picked during the tiny period in the second session after declaring on 518 in the first innings.

Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed centuries to provide them with exposure with the bat. Apart from Sudharsan’s 87, KL Rahul and Jurel also got starts with the bat as West Indies went to the tea break with 26/1.
