WATCH: Unfortunate Yash Dubey Gets Out In Most Bizarre Way During Duleep Trophy 2024
As they began to build their innings, Dubey and Bhui looked to be in control. However, their partnership was abruptly ended due to a run-out incident. During the first session of Day 4, Bhui drove Shams Mulani’s delivery down the ground to secure a single. At the non-striker’s end, Dubey failed to get his bat out of the way in time as the ball deflected towards the stumps. Mulani seized the opportunity, quickly collected the ball, and broke the stumps, leading to Dubey’s dismissal. He was found short of the crease and was out for 37 off 94 balls.
