Haseeb Hameed takes a good catch, 1st test 2016


The 19 year old Haseeb Hameed from the English test squad has become the talk of the town. The teenager hit a solid 82 against India in the second innings of the opening test. Haseeb batted in the first innings and was looking good but then got lbw by Ashwin.
In the second innings the best thing about him was the way he used his crease. He went really deep on a few balls and then on some he went out of his batting crease. Haseeb innings was a sheer delight to watch.
Mishra took him out today. Though there was some doubt on the landing foot of Mishra on this ball but still it was given out. Haseeb later went straight towards the short leg fielding position when England went in to bowl on day 5.
The young lad showed that he had the nerves to field on one of the most dangerous fielding positions in cricket. He took a really good catch to dismiss Indian opener Murli Vijay. Moeen Ali turned this ball and it hit the bat before hitting the pad and belly. It was not an easy take for Haseeb. He really had to stretch forward to get his hands behind the ball
