Pune: All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is on a roll after taking a spectacular catch on the second day of the Christchurch Test against New Zealand. Jadeja grabbed a one-handed stunner at deep square leg in the 72nd over to dismiss Neil Wagner, who had to depart after scoring 21 runs, earning praises from veteran cricketers and fans alike on Twitter.
Jadeja's move was also praised by Pune police on the micro-blogging site with a comment that takes inspiration from the famous Bollywood punchline, "Kanoon ke haath bahut lambe hote hai." (The hands of the law are very long.)
The police posted a picture of Jadeja catching the ball with one hand and captioned, "Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it 'kanoon ka haath'?" tagging the cricketer and BCCI in the tweet.
