catch of the century
MUMBAI VS KARNATAKA, Ranji finals, Mysore,
Mumbai second innings 146 for 5 wkts
Leading by 249 runs
Joshi to Nayar, OUT, tossed up delivery and Nayar charges down the track and hits in the air down to long on, Pandey running around jumps in the air and in a horizontal position and takes an amazing catch, superman effort, wonderful. Lifts the spirit of boys in the Karnataka team. No words to describe it. It has been referred to the third umpire to check if the catch had been taken cleanly, I thought it was brilliant and Nayar has to go as umpire Saheba gets the answer from the third umpire
AM Nayar c Pandey b Joshi 50 (218m 139b 4×4 0×6) SR: 35.97…………………
watch the catch of the century
It will be one of the brilliant catches of the year, amazing stuff. Tempers heating up as Agarkar walks into the crease and he has a chat with the umpire.
Later in the second innings Pandey went on to score 144 runs but could not save Karnataka, as hosts lost the match by 6 runs…………..but his catch will be remembered for a long time to come in the history of cricket
