Yashasvi Jaiswal Catches Lahiru Udara Off Prasidh Krishna in Colombo Test
On day two of the second Test between India and Sri Lanka in Colombo, Indian bowler Prasidh Krishna delivered a challenging ball that led to Sri Lankan opener Lahiru Udara's dismissal. Attempting to defend, Udara edged the ball to the slip cordon, where Indian batter Yashasvi Jaiswal took a low, diving catch. Jaiswal celebrated energetically following the catch, shortly after being fined for an on-field incident involving Sri Lankan pacer Asitha Fernando. India holds a strong position in the match after declaring at 503/9.
