Speaking about Tripathi’s catch, opening batter Pathum Nissanka was facing Axar Patel. The right-handed batter looked set for his 33 runs. However, he tried a big heave aimed to clear the mid-wicket, but he mistimed the shot. Tripathi who was stationed at the cow-corner completed a decent catch.
As he took the catch, the local lad took out a unique celebration. It looked like Tripathi was signaling a six which left both Axar and Hardik in splits. Meanwhile, Tripathi continued his good effort in the field and saved a certain boundary later in the game.
