Ishan Kishan Takes Exceptional Catch to Dismiss Matthew Forde in India vs West Indies 1st T20I
During the India vs West Indies 1st T20I at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan showcased outstanding fielding skills by taking a remarkable catch to dismiss West Indies batter Matthew Forde. On the first ball of the 15th over, Forde pulled a short delivery from Kuldeep Yadav but lacked power and timing, sending the ball high towards deep mid-wicket. Kishan managed to track the ball under challenging floodlight conditions, stretched, and completed a clean catch with his left hand. Forde was dismissed after scoring 2 runs off 4 balls, marking the seventh wicket lost for West Indies. Despite early struggles where seven West Indies batters failed to reach double-digit scores, Sherfane Rutherford played an explosive innings of 56 runs off 34 balls, helping the team reach a total of 171 in 19.1 overs. India now needs 172 runs in 20 overs to win the match.
