India all-rounder Hardik Pandya made headlines after he grabbed a stunner to dismiss Devon Conway during the third T20I of the five-match series against New Zealand in Guwahati. Conway took the aerial route on the third delivery of the match but miscued his stroke.
Pandya who was stationed at mid off took a brilliant catch diving to his left. New Zealand were 6/1 after the end of the first over.
WOW!
How about that for a catch from Hardik Pandya 😎
Wicket in the opening over for Harshit Rana 👏👏

Conway hasn’t had the best of time on this tour. He just notched up a fifty in the first match of the ODI series but has been going through a rough patch.
Team India lead the series 2-0 after winning the first two matches and look to take an unassailable lead in Guwahati. Suryakumar Yadav put New Zealand into bat and the visitors struggled to get a positive start. They first lost Conway and Rachin Ravindra followed soon after Ravi Bishnoi grabbed another good catch in the deep.
“We’ll look to bowl first, the wicket looks good and there will be a little bit of dew later on. So, I would like to chase tonight. I think let’s let’s try and repeat the good habits, be the same way, enjoy, be fearless, take your own calls when you’re inside because two batters or bowlers who are bowling, I think they’re the best to judge inside. Enjoy it and at the same time be a little humble as well. It’s always good, someone like Shivam, Hardik and some days Abhishek Sharma chipping in one or two overs. It’s always a big boost,” Suryakumar Yadav had said at the toss.

Covering sports for fun. Cricket in whites remains the first love—the kind that teaches patience, rewards nuance, and tells stories over five days rather than five seconds.
