During the second T20 match between India and Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australian wicketkeeper Josh Inglis pulled off a remarkable diving catch to dismiss Shivam Dube. The catch came off the bowling of Xavier Bartlett and was one of the day's outstanding moments.
India were looking to gain momentum in the middle overs as Shivam Dube settled in and prepared for a big finish. Bartlett bowled a sharp, back-of-a-length delivery angling across the left-hander, which tempted Dube into playing a powerful shot. The ball came off the edge, setting up the dramatic dismissal.
"Inglis, standing alert behind the stumps, reacted in a flash. Reading the deviation instantly, he launched himself full-stretch to his left, snatching the ball cleanly inches above the turf."
This athletic catch electrified the crowd at the MCG and earned praise from commentators for Inglis’ exceptional reflexes and anticipation.
"Shivam Dube, known for his finishing ability and power-hitting, looked visibly stunned as he walked back, while Bartlett celebrated the key wicket with a roar, acknowledging Inglis’ brilliance."
