VIDEO: Umesh Yadav Bowls Maharaj With A Peach, Stumps Go Cartwheeling
Cricket is a picturesque sport. There are so many moments that one can watch n number of times but it will still look beautiful to watch every time. Stumps flying after a batter gets bowled is one of those moments.
If sending stumps cartwheeling is art then Umesh Yadav is one of the top artists who can paint those images to perfection. Yadav has been selected in the playing of the ongoing 3rd India vs South Africa test at Cape Town.
On day 2, Yadav came onto bowl when Keshav Maharaj had survived a top spell opening spell and was looking in good touch at the score of 25 runs.
Umesh came onto bowl his second over of the day. On the 2nd ball, Yadav bowled a scrambled seam delivery which was full, and on the off stump. Just when Maharaj moved forward to reach it, the ball moved off the pitch and crashed onto the stumps through the gap between bat and pad.
