Ruturaj Gaikwad takes stunning diving catch to dismiss Will Young in 5th ODI [Watch]
Ruturaj Gaikwad Catch

Ruturaj Gaikwad took a stunning diving catch to dismiss Will Young off Arshdeep Singh's bowling in the fifth ODI against New Zealand. The spectacular effort ended a partnership and gave the visitors a reason to fight back during the run chase at Mount Maunganui on Sunday, November 15.

India had struggled with the bat once again, managing just 209 runs in 42.1 overs after losing early wickets in the powerplay. Ishan Kishan top-scored with 46, while Mitchell Santner led the hosts' bowling attack with three wickets. In response, Tim Seifert scored 14 runs off 21 balls before being dismissed.

Ruturaj Gaikwad Takes Stunning Catch as Arshdeep Singh Removes Will Young

Arshdeep Singh produced a well-directed bouncer during the 17th over. Will Young went for the pull, as he had done throughout his innings, but could not keep the ball away from the fielder in the deep.

Ruturaj Gaikwad ran to his right from deep backward square and covered considerable ground before completing a full-length, two-handed diving catch near the boundary ropes. The dismissal ended the partnership and removed Young, who had scored a century in the previous match.

Arshdeep also improved his record against the New Zealand batter in ODIs. Young has scored 48 runs off 63 balls in five innings against the left-arm pacer, who has dismissed him twice at an average of 24 and a strike rate of 76.19.
