Asia Cup 2018: WATCH – Manish Pandey takes a blinder on the boundary to remove Sarfraz Ahmed

India are playing Pakistan after a gap of more than a year.

Manish Pandey took a blinder to remove Sarfraz Ahmed off Kedar Jadhav | HotStar grab The Pakistan vs. India match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai was a much awaited one in the ongoing Asia Cup 2018 tournament.

Pakistan chose to bat first after Sarfraz Ahmed won the toss and Bhuvneshwar Kumar jolted them twice inside first five overs with wickets of Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq. Then India got a setback as Hardik Pandya went down in the 18th over while bowling and was stretchered off the field with what was later diagnosed as an acute lower back injury and Manish Pandey came onto the field as a substitute.

His impact was seen immediately when Pakistani skipper Sarfraz Ahmed went for a huge six over long-on off Kedar Jadhav. However, Manish Pandey covered a lot of ground, caught the ball and lopped it in the air as his momentum took him out of the boundary, came back and caught the ball again to send Sarfraz Ahmed back into the pavilion.

Here is the video of what could be the catch of the tournament:
