New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat, setting the stage for a riveting contest. As the innings progressed, Halliday found herself at the crease, looking to build a partnership with Sophie Devine. However, in the 31st over, Priya Mishra bowled a straightish delivery that Halliday attempted to attack. U🅺nfortunately for her, she mistimed the shot, ⛎sending it high into the air.

As Halliday’s shot reached its apex, Radha launched herself into a full-length dive, extending her body horizontally to the ground. The crowd erupted as she managed to grasp the ball just inches above the turf, pulling off what can only be described as a blinder. This stunning catch not only marked Priya’s first international wicket but also highlighted Radha’s growing reputation as a key player for India.
