WATCH: Ravindra Jadeja`s sensational catch running backwards to dismiss Jonny Bairstow on Day 5
The catch reminded fans of Kapil Dev`s famous catch to dismiss swashbuckling West Indies batsman Vivian Richards in the final of the 1983 World Cup which proved to be the turning point of the match.
Chennai: Indian Test all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja brought India back in the match by picking three wickets on the final day of the fifth Test match against England at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk.
Alastair Cook and Keaton Jennings added 103-runs for the opening wicket after which Jadeja picked three quick wickets in quick succession to send tourists on backfoot.
India got its fourth breakthrough when Ishant Sharma fired a bouncer to Jonny Bairstow, who played a pull shot over midwicket. Jadeja, fielding at midwicket, ran backwards and ended up taking one of the finest catches we will ever see.
