Watch: Keshav Maharaj bamboozles Shubman Gill with a jaffa | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: South Africa spinner Keshav Maharaj delivered an astonishing delivery during the World Cup match against India, leaving the batsman, the umpires, and the crowd in a state of sheer amazement at Eden Gardens on Sunday.
The left-arm spinner produced a dream delivery to clean bowled Shubman Gill in the 11th over after India opted to bat in their penultimate group match.

A brilliant delivery by Maharaj left Gill bewildered as it pitched just outside the leg stump, took a subtle turn, and managed to elude the young batting sensation, ultimately brushing the bails.
Gill was in disbelief, unsure if he had been stumped or cleanly bowled. Nevertheless, a television referral confirmed that the ball had indeed brushed the bails.

Earlier, skipper Rohit Sharma gave India a flourishing start with a 24-ball 40 and shared a 62-run opening partnership with Gill (23).
The flurry of shots from Rohit’s bat saw India complete 50 runs in just 4.3 overs as the skipper smashed two sixes and six boundaries during his entertaining innings.
