Kyle Mayers sends Suryakumar Yadav packing after a brilliant throw
During the 4th over of India's innings, Ishan Kishan tried to steal a quick single off Obed McCoy. He played it towards the mid-wicket region where an alert Kyle Myers collected the ball instantaneously and took a shy at the stumps. Mayers hits the bull's eye and despite making a desperate dive Suryakumar Yadav could not save himself. Yadav's wicket was India's second and at that time the score read 18/2 after 3.3 overs.
This is Mayers second run-out success in the series. In the first T20 he dismissed Sanju Samson with a similar throw, which in turn turned the match towards the Windies, who won the match by 4 runs and took a 1-0 lead in the series.
