WI vs IND [WATCH]: Ishan Kishan attempts an Alex Carey-like stumping to dismiss Jason Holder

India started their West Indies tour in a great fashion by registering a dominating win over the Caribbean team in the first Test of the two match-series. The Rohit Sharma-led side thrashed the hosts by an innings and 141 runs in the Dominica 𓂃Test.

Although the match turned out to be one-sided, it did witness some eye-catching events that became major talking points on the internet, such as S💛hubman Gill dancing in the middle of the outfield, Virat Kohli celebrating his first boundary in an animated fashion and much more. Among all, debutant Ishan Kishan attempting an Alex Carey-like stumping on Day 3 of the match also garnered huge attentio﷽n from cricket enthusiasts.

Notably, the ongoing Ashes series between England and Australia landed up in huge controversy a few weeks back. The controversy erupted after English batter Jonny Bairstꦐow was dismissed i𓃲n a bizarre fashion by Aussie wicketkeeper Carey at the Lord’s Cricket Ground.

It all happened when Bairstow ducked a bouncer from Cameron Green and left the crease, assuming that the over had concluded. However, Carey saw it as an opportunity and initiated an underarm throw to dislodge the bails, sending Bairstow back to the pavilion. The event sparked a huge debate on the legitimacy of the stumping and ‘Spirit of Cricket’, with fans and experts divided on the issue.

Kishan made a similar attempt on Jason Holder during the first Test between India and West Indies at Dominica, where he cunningly waited for the Caribbean batt🃏er to raise his left leg before whipping the bails off. The Indian wicketkeeper then made a loud appeal to the square leg umpire, but the match official dismissed the call as the over’s conclusion was already signalled before the stumping.

Meanwhile, Ravichandran Ashwin stood out with the ball for the visitors and took a 12-wicket match-haul in the contest. Yashasvi was adjudged ‘Player of the Match’ for his sensational batting performance.
