Cameron Green’s acrobatic brilliance
Maxwell, marking his return to the squad, made an immediate impact by claiming the prized scalp of Shubman Gill. Gill’s innings, consisting of 16 runs off 19 deliveries with a solitary boundary, was halted abruptly in the seventh over. A Maxwell delivery, teasingly tossed up, lured Gill into attempting a lofted shot towards long-on. As Gill swung his bat, Green, positioned strategically at long-on, exhibited lightning-fast reflexes, sprinting towards his left to snatch a remarkable catch that left spectators and teammates in awe of his athleticism and skill.
