Wriddhiman Saha Takes A Blinder Behind The Stumps And The Internet Cannot Stop Praising

Wriddhi Superman Saha.
@anandkatakam

Australia is touring India for a 4-match Test series and the first match, being played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. Australia is 9 down for 256 runs at stumps, thanks to Umesh Yadav's 4/32 bowling figures.

But the highlight of the day was when Aussie Steve O'Keefe fell prey to Yadav's ball for a duck, edging it to wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha who caught a blinder behind the stumps diving full length to his right.

And the Internet hailed Saha's Superman performance.

With that catch, Saha is now officially a superhero.

We can call him Wriddhiman.

#FlyingSaha is what we should call him, remember one he took against South Africa in Delhi #IndvAus#Ripper

Right, here is a great example of a top keeper, Saha, converting a bowler's (Yadav's) skill into a wicket.

Umesh Yadav has been brilliant. Top catch that from Saha.Winning a session in India possible,but winning a day very very difficult.#IndvAus

Brilliant from Saha. Such catches can lift bowler's effort too & Yadav comes up with a yorker first ball for Lyon. Advantage of toss gone...

Sensational catch from Saha and Umesh has his third wicket. The ball was flying and so was Saha, ends with a one-handed blinder #IndvAus

A fantastic session for #IND continues! Terrific flying catch from Saha off Umesh to send Steve O'Keefe back! #AUS 205/8 #INDvAUS#PlayBold
