Team India all-rounder Hardik Pandya took an absolute stunner at the boundary to dismiss Rishad Hossain in the second T20I against Bangladesh on Wednesday, October 9. Both sides squared off at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi.

Rishad Hossain walked out to bat and got a boundary off the second ball to get his batting innings underway. He then would add another boundary to his name in an over bowled by Riyan Parag.

Rishad, confident of his double strike, would then look to go after the bowling of Varun Chakaravarthy and got some success to some extent before Hardik Pandya picked the ball with an extended hand and plucked it out of thin air to send him back to the hut.

Take a look at the catch below:

Rishad Hossain was dismissed for a meager score of 9 runs in 10 balls. He was the seventh wicket to fall for the visitors.

Bangladesh won the toss in the second T20I of the tour and asked the hosts to bat first. Having dismissed three batters in the powerplay, Bangladesh had their tails up but Nitish Kumar Reddy (74 off 34) and Rinku Singh (53 off 29) along with some lower order additions from Hardik Pandya (32 off 19) and Riyan Parag (15 off 6) helped Team India register 221/9.

Team India would blow Bangladesh away as all the seven bowlers used by Suryakumar Yadav picked up wickets. For Bangladesh, only Mahmudullah (41 off 39) was the one to get some runs under his belt as Bangladesh finished on 135/9 in their allotted 20 overs.

With this win, Team India take a 2-0 series lead in the three-match T20I series. The last game of the series will be played on October 12 in Hyderabad.
