India A easily defeated UAE by 7 wickets in their second game of the ACC Men’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup tournament. Ayush Badoni stole the show on the field with his amazing catch, helping India pick up their ninth wicket of the day. The incident occurred on the final ball of the 15th over bowled by Ramandeep Singh.
Left-handed batter Jawadullah went for a huge down the ground and the ball looked set to clear the ropes. Badoni made good ground and dived full length to take the catch. It was a tremendous effort and show of athletic skills by the young Indian star who is seeing his stocks rise.
