India Test captain Shubman Gill picked up a nearly impossible catch on Day 3 of the second Test match to help Mohammed Siraj dismiss West Indies opener Tagenarine Chanderpaul in the second innings of the ongoing second India-West Indies Test at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The southpaw was 10 runs from 29 balls when he tried to play a pull shot against Siraj but failed to connect with the ball properly, and Gill, who was stationed inside the 30-yard circle, completed a running catch.

The clip of Gill's fielding effort to dismiss Chanderpaul went viral on social media. Here is the video. 

West Indies team management and fans had high hopes from Chanderpaul, who is the son of former West Indies batter and captain Shivnarine Chanderpaul, in the ongoing two-Test match series against India but he managed to score 52 runs in four innings.
