A surprising incident happened in the 19th over.

In the 19th over of the innings, Sameer Rizvi played a high shot on the ball of Jamie Overton. The ball remained in the air for a long time and it seemed that it would become an easy catch. Jamie Overton himself moved forward to catch him, while Gaikwad also ran in the same direction. But at the last moment, the lack of coordination between the two was clearly visible and the ball fell on the ground between them without touching them.

reminiscent of an old mistake

Such a mistake reminded cricket fans of the incident of 2008, when Pakistan players Shoaib Malik and Saeed Ajmal together took an easy catch. At that time he had dropped the catch of Chris Gayle, which is still considered a very careless mistake. A similar scene was seen in the current match also.
