Watch: Ravindra Jadeja’s Direct Hit to Run Out Usman Khawaja
Watch: Ravindra Jadeja’s direct hit to run out Usman Khawaja in the second ODI at Adelaide.
Aaron Finch won the toss and elected to bat first once again in the second ODI at Adelaide against India.
The skipper himself and fellow opener Alex Carey both were back in the hut within the first 8 overs with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohadmmad Shami picking a wicket each.
The third wicket of the day though was picked by Ravindra Jadeja, but not with his bowling skills.
Usman Khawaja was batting on 21 when he hit a Kuldeep Yadav delivery towards point. Jadeja moved quickly to his left and picked it up and threw it towards the non-striker's end - all in one motion. The ball dislodged the wickets and the the decision goes up to the third umpire.
A few replays and the big screen reads ‘Out’ as Khawaja is found short by a couple of inches.
