In the ongoing International Masters League match between India Masters and England Masters, Pawan Negi showcased his brilliance on the field with two stunning catches that sent Eoin Morgan and Phil Mustard back to the pavilion.
The first catch came on the last ball of the third over when Abhimanyu Mithun dismissed Phil Mustard. Negi, positioned at backward point, dived deep to take a spectacular catch.
The second, even more challenging, happened during the third ball of the fifth over. This time, Dhawal Kulkarni bowled to Eoin Morgan, and Negi reacted quickly with sharp reflexes to pull off another outstanding grab.
So far, England Masters are 75/3 after 13 overs. Darren Maddy is holding the innings together with 24 runs off 21 balls, while Tim Bresnan is struggling at 5 runs from 11 deliveries. England had a steady start but lost momentum after quick wickets, putting them in a tricky position.
Pawan Negi continued to impact the game, this time with the ball, dismissing Tim Ambrose for 23 runs. For India Masters, the bowling unit has been effective, with Dhawal Kulkarni, Pawan Negi, and Abhimanyu Mithun each taking one wicket.
England Masters will now look to rebuild their innings and put up a competitive total, while India Masters will aim to keep the pressure on with tight bowling and sharp fielding. With plenty of overs left, the match remains evenly poised, but India Masters have taken control for now.
