Nitish Reddy pulled off a stunning diving catch to dismiss Mayank Agarwal in the Duleep Trophy on Day 4 (Sunday, September 8). That came during the ongoing clash between India A and India B at M Chinnswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Yash Dayal bowled short of a length ball on off during the second over of India A’s chase and Mayank failed to find the gap between the second and third slips. The right-handed batter ended up poking at the ball before Nitish dived to his right to complete a diving catch.
