Another amazing fact about Dada....he is the only cricketer who have stopped two double centuries in ODI cricket...
One was against Pakistan when Saeed Anwar was batting at 194..an amazing and impossible catch by Dada stopped the would be first double century by Anwar..
The second one was against Sri Lanka when Jayasuriya was batting at 189 and dada came to bowl....a very clever delivery came from Dada which was called a wide...but Jayasuriya chased it and was stumped....end of hope for yet another would be double century in ODI....
In both the games this happened when it was not the last over...so batsmen who were on fire had ample chances....
But unfortunately they had our Dada in the opponent team playing......so
...that stopped all their hopes....and saved India from some bigger shame...
