Watch: Adarsh Singh of India Takes Absolute Blinder In Slips, Leaves Pakistan U19 Batter Shocked
Team India got off to a fine start with the ball in the Under-19 Asia Cup 2023 match against Pakistan, with Murugan Abhishek dismissing Shamyl Hussain for a score of 8 runs in the 5th over. India did stutter with the bat but managed to post a defendable total of 259 runs with the bat. While the batters didn't manage to put a better target on the board, the responsibility was on the bowlers to strike early. Abhishek did just that, following a big helping hand from Adarsh Singh in the slips.
Adarsh dove towards his right, grabbing a low catch after the ball took the outside edge from Hussain's bat. The stunning catch sent the entire Indian camp jubilant.
Here's the video.
Talking about the match, team Pakistan rode on Azan Awais's classy unbeaten century to beat arch-rivals India by eight wickets in the ongoing U-19 Asia Cup in Dubai on Sunday. India managed a mediocre 259 for 9 in 50 overs, largely due to a late surge by Sachin Dhas, who tonked three sixes in his 42-ball 58.
