This ‘Spirit Of Cricket’ Moment In Australia’s Sheffield Shield Wins Over Internet. Watch | Cricket News

[ad_1] Victoria were on the receiving end of some huge praise for their act of sportsmanship against South Australia batter Jake Fraser-McGurk during Day 2 of their Sheffield Shield match at the Adelaide Oval on Wednesday.

India vs Australia: Peter Handscomb’s Unbelievable Catch Leaves Shreyas Iyer Stunned. Watch | Cricket News

[ad_1] Peter Handscomb pulled off a stunning catch to dismiss Shreyas Iyer cheaply on Day 2 of the second Test encounter between India and Australia in New Delhi on Saturday.

Iyer was cramped for room and the delivery from Nathan Lyon went flying from the inside edge. Handscomb, who was placed at short leg, could not collect the ball cleanly at first but he kept his calm and made sure to complete the catch in his second attempt to deal a heavy blow to the hosts.Very good catch by Peter Handscomb in IND vs AUS 2nd test match #IndVsAus2023 #IndvsAus2ndtest #BGT2023 #BGT23 pic.twitter.com/jNYjnqBixL— sportsliveresults (@Ashishs92230255) February 18, 2023KL...
