India registered their sixth consecutive victory in the ongoing ODI World Cup.

The early collapse of the Three Lions was initiated by Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah, who collectively accounted for seven of the ten wickets that fell in the match.

During this wicket-taking moment, Jadeja delivered a flighted delivery just wide of the off-stump, deceiving the batsman. Behind the stumps, Rahul exhibited his agility, reminiscent of MS Dhoni, as he lightning-quickly removed the bails.
