Australian wicket-keeper Alyssa Healy has become the first cricketer player to complete 100 dismissals in T20Is. She achieved the feat when India lost their opening wicket in the form of Smriti Mandhana during the fourth over.

Healy held onto the nick off Mandhana as Darcie Brown helped Australia with an early strike. The Aussie wicket-keeper also completed a crucial run-out of Yastika Bhatia in the 10th over of the Indian women's innings.

She also held on to the important catch from Shafali Verma off Jess Jonassen in the 12th over after an initial error.

Alyssa Healy misses hilarious stumping chance against Shafali Verma

Surprisingly, Healy also made a big error against Shafali Verma before finally getting her wicket via caught out. She made a hilarious stumping miss against Verma as she collected the ball but broke the stumps with her right hand with the ball in her left hand.

Shafali went to score 48 runs off just 33 balls. Here’s how the drama unfolded in the opening match of the Commonwealth Games. Take a look:

Alyssa Healy will have a chuckle at this later tonight. (If not already) Lucky break for Shafali, the ball stayed in the wrong glove for Healy.
