During the fourth T20I between Australia and India at Carrara Oval, Gold Coast, on November 6, 2025, Tim David pulled off a remarkable catch to dismiss Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav. The incident quickly became one of the most talked-about moments of the match.
With the series tied at 1-1, Australian captain Mitchell Marsh opted to bat first after winning the toss. The hosts made four changes to their lineup, while India retained the same eleven players.
Yadav attempted a flick shot off Xavier Bartlett in the 10th over but mistimed it. The ball gained height rather than distance, and Tim David sprinted from deep square leg to take a stunning two-finger catch.

Following the catch, David amused fans by pretending to lick the ball in an exaggerated gesture, which quickly circulated on social media as one of the match's most lighthearted highlights.
