Dhruv Jurel, who often gets compared to MS Dhoni due to his stupendous glovework behind the stumps, did another delightful job on Sunday during India’s second T20I of the five-match series in Harare.

The 23-year-old, who took a superb catch earlier to remove Sikandar Raza, did an outstanding run-out, leaving everyone in absolute awe.


Dhruv Jurel Does A MS Dhoni Again During IND Vs ZIM

The incident happened during the 12th over of Zimbabwe’s innings, when Masakadza, batting on 1 off 3 balls, defended Washington Sundar for a quick single. However, his partner was slightly hesitant, and Jurel saw the opportunity to run him out.

He removed the big gloves from one hand, and threw the ball immediately after picking it up. The throw was spot on at the non-striker’s end, as it was a direct hit and Masakadza was well short of the crease.

At the time of writing this, Zimbabwe are on the cusp of a defeat, as they have slipped to 119/8 after 17 overs. They require 116 runs off 18 balls, which, of course, is not going to happen in reality.
