A routine fielding assignment turned into an unexpected scare for Karnataka’s Uma Kashvi when a monkey darted onto the ground during a Women’s U19 T20 Trophy quarter-final against Vidarbha in Nagpur. The unusual interruption caught the 15-year-old off guard, creating a moment that stood out in a contest Karnataka eventually won by six runs. The incident took place near the boundary, where Kashvi was positioned when the animal approached. She tried to get out of its path but lost her footing and fell onto the grass as the monkey moved past her. The brief encounter has since drawn attention online, adding an unusual twist to the knockout fixture. WATCH: Monkey’s Unexpected Entry Leaves Karnataka Fielder Startled While the animal’s appearance provided an unexpected interruption, Karnataka had a much bigger task to complete on the field: defending a competitive total to secure a semi-final berth. Uma Kashvi Delivers With The Ball As Karnataka Reach Semi-Finals Kashvi made a significant contribution to Karnataka’s victory, taking three wickets for 18 runs from her four overs. Her spell helped restrict Vidarbha during a tense chase and ensured that the unusual moment did not overshadow her performance. Karnataka posted 140/7 after being asked to bat first. Their innings needed rescuing after they slipped to 65/5, but Kushi Suryakanth and Inchara Umesh added 38 runs for the sixth wicket to steady the innings. Suryakanth finished unbeaten on 33, while Karnika Karthik chipped in with 23. Vidarbha fought until the closing stages but could not complete the chase. Swara Thakare remained unbeaten on 32, and Sakshi Bhupal contributed an unbeaten 25. Vidarbha ended on 134/7, falling six runs short of Karnataka’s target. Karnataka will face Baroda in the semi-final on October 24 at the Lady Amritbai Daga College Ground in Nagpur. Delhi and Haryana will meet in the other last-four contest. WPL 2027 Auction Adds Another Milestone For 15-Year-Old Kashvi The quarter-final performance comes as Kashvi looks towards another opportunity in her young career. She has registered for the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2027 auction with a base price of Rs 10 lakh. A place in the auction pool offers the Karnataka youngster a chance to attract franchise interest, although registration does not guarantee a bid or a contract. For now, Kashvi has helped her team move into the semi-finals with an important bowling contribution. The monkey’s surprise appearance may have provided the match’s most unusual moment, but Karnataka’s narrow win was ultimately secured through their performance under pressure.

About the news
How the news of ForBets works
Where the stories come from, how your feed is made and how to get an alert, with the terms of the news pages.
The stories are collected from the news sources of the sports we cover, and each one says where it comes from. For some of them only the opening and a link to the original are shown: the full text is read on the site of the publisher, who owns it.
News has three tabs. Your feed shows the stories of the sports you follow, Discover shows every sport, and Saved holds the stories you kept to read later. You can search by headline or topic, narrow the list to one sport, and mark everything as read.
Yes. In your account, under Sports & alerts, choose the sports you follow and how you want to hear about each one: in the app, by push or by email. The bell in the header collects the new stories of your sports and the new picks of the analysts you follow.
News is for reading and does not recommend bets. For picks, open the list of matches and compare the analysts by their records. The two are kept apart on purpose: a story is a report, and a pick is an opinion that its author answers for.
