IND vs WI 2022, 1st ODI | Internet reacts to Shamarh Brook's stunning diving effort robbing Shikhar Dhawan of sensational century

07/22/2022

It often requires a brilliant piece of fielding to end the innings when a batter is in sublime touch. In the first ODI between India and West Indies, Shikhar Dhawan was heading towards his century but a superb diving effort from Shamarh Brooks inside the 30-yard circle put an end to his onslaught.

India started well against West Indies in the first ODI and is heading towards a huge total. Openers Shikhar Dhawan and Shubhman Gill along with Shreyas Iyer scored fifties after West Indies invited the visitors to bat first. India was on 213/2 and Dhawan was determined to score his century but a blinder of a catch prevented him from doing so.
