Carrara Oval, November 6 — In one of the most dramatic moments of the fourth T20I between India and Australia, Tim David pulled off a sensational two-finger catch at the square-leg boundary to dismiss Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav.
Facing Xavier Bartlett, Suryakumar tried to swing hard across the line to a back-of-length delivery, getting plenty of height but not enough distance. David, stationed at square leg, sprinted a few steps to his left and timed his leap to perfection. The ball almost slipped out, but he managed to cling onto it with just his fingertips — an unbelievable effort that had the crowd gasping.
Suryakumar, who had been in explosive touch with two sixes in his 20 off 10 balls, could only smile in disbelief as David’s athletic brilliance ended his stay. The catch not only dismissed India’s most dangerous batter but also turned the momentum slightly in Australia’s favour.
It was one of those moments that perfectly summed up the intensity of the India–Australia series — quick reflexes, high stakes, and pure drama in the outfield.
