Shimron Hetmyer took an excellent catch to dismiss Suryakumar Yadav in the first ODI between India and West Indies at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad on Thursday, August 3.

The incident took place in the 10th over during India’s run chase when Jason Holder bowled a fuller-length delivery outside off-stump. Yadav drove it hard but failed to keep it on the ground. Hetmyer dived full length to his left at extra cover and completed a low catch with both hands. With the wicket, WI reduced the Men in Blue to 67/3 after 9.2 overs.
