WATCH: Navdeep Saini sends Beuran Hendricks’ off stump for a walk during IND-A vs SA-A unofficial Test
Indian Speedster Navdeep Saini was named in India A squad touring South Africa for the three four-day unofficial Test matches started on November 23. After the first unofficial match resulted in a draw, India A are currently playing their second unofficial match at Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein.
Saini, who clinched four wickets in the first unofficial Test, showed more aggressive form in the second contest after registering three wickets of South Africa A in the first innings.
Out of three Wickets, the jaw-dropping moment was caught in the 93rd over, when the 29-year-old beautifully uprooted Beuran Hendricks‘ off stump on a good-length delivery. Hendrick, who was playing on 2 off 7 balls, was completely beaten by the Saini’s top-notch bowling.
Here’s the video:
Truly one of the most beautiful sights in cricket as Navdeep Saini uproots Beuran Hendricks' off stump.
Marco Jansen however has been the 1st SA A batsmen to score 50 and is desperately hoping for the number 11 to just stay with him.
