All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is known for his exceptional fielding skills, and during the final of Asia Cup 2018 between India and Bangladesh, Jadeja once again displayed his brilliant fielding skills.
The incident took place during the 27th over of the Bangladesh innings which was being bowled by Yuzvendra Chahal and Liton Das was batting. On the last ball of Chahal’s over, Das hit the ball towards extra cover and it was racing towards the boundary but Jadeja intercepted the ball with a full-length dive. After taking the bowl, Jadeja threw it to Chahal who ran out Mohammad Mithun, sending him back to the pavilion.
Here is the video of the run-out:
This man is truly magician 👏

Fantastic effort by the bowlers to restrict Bangladesh after the start they got. Liton Das played a gem , run out by Jadeja was a big moment.#AsiaCupFinal
