During the second T20I of the three-match series🍸 b♌etween India and Sri Lanka in Indore, young Indian pacer Navdeep Saini bowled a pinpoint yorker to dismiss the Sri Lankan opening batsman Danushka Gunathilaka.
It all happened on the fourth delivery of the eighth over when Saini’s 147.5 kmph delivery was too fast to handle for the southpaw. Having played all-round the delivery, Gunathilaka had no option than to look at his stumps getting shattered.
The umpire was quick to check for the no-ball, but Saini was fine as India got the second wicket 🍃to mount more pressure on Sri Lanka.
Bumrah’s yorker’s got competition! 🤩
