On October 9, 2025, in a high-stakes ICC Women's World Cup match, the Indian women's cricket team faced off against South Africa at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam. As South Africa chased India's 252-run target, a crucial moment occurred in the second over.
Young Indian fast bowler Kranti Gaud, just 22 years old, delivered a full-length ball that Tazmin Brits, South Africa's in-form batter, tried to hit straight down the ground. Brits struck the ball hard, but Gaud reacted with lightning-fast reflexes, sticking out her left hand as she followed through and completing an astonishing catch.
