Team India's retired cricketer Yuvraj Singh showcased his spectacular fielding skills during the International Masters League T20 game against Sri Lanka on Saturday at the D.Y Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The left-handed batter had timed his jump perfectly to take a catch at long-on to see the back of Lahiru Thirimane.

The dismissal occurred in the eighth over of the innings sent down by left-arm seamer Irfan Pathan and Thirimane tried to clobber it for six. However, it couldn't evade Yuvraj as he took a spectacular catch at the key moment of the game and Thirimane had to make his way back for 24 off 17 deliveries, laced with a four and a six.

India prevail over Sri Lanka in a high-scoring thriller

Batting first at the D.Y Patil Stadium, India, led by Sachin Tendulkar, piled on a daunting 223 as Gurkeerat Singh (44), Stuart Binny (68), Yuvraj (31) and Yusuf Pathan (56) picked the bones out of Sri Lanka's bowling unit. In response, Sri Lanka's skipper Kumar Sangakkara was the only member from their side to make a half-century but there were contributions from Jeevan Mendis and Asela Gunaratne.

Despite that, they fell five runs short and were stopped by India at 218/9. Irfan took three wickets, while Dhawal Kulkarni, Abhimanyu Mithun and Vinay Kumar snared two wickets each.
