#2 Wriddhiman Saha vs Australia, 2017 – Pune

Image result for Wriddhiman Saha vs Australia Pune
It was a Superman-like effort from Saha to take the catch

It was the first test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and Australia were expected to bow down to spin as the ball was turning from day one. But instead, to everyone's surprise, Umesh Yadav was bowling a brilliant spell, reverse swinging the ball at will.

At 205-7, Australia were looking to add some handy runs. Steve O’Keefe slashed hard at a short and wide delivery from Yadav and the ball was travelling fast off the edge. Saha hardly had any time to react as he flew across to complete a one-handed screamer.

It was as much Saha’s wicket as much it was Umesh’s. It can be termed as one of the best catches in Tests in 2017.
