n Ahmedabad, the Gujarat Titans took charge of their Sunday afternoon match against the Kolkata Knight Riders by reducing the opposition to 28/2 after four overs in their pursuit of 205. While the game was action-packed with several exciting moments, one of the most remarkable was Yash Dayal’s catch to dismiss Rahmanullah Gurbaz in the third over of the game.
In a fiery over, Mohammed Shami bowled a short delivery that caught Gurbaz off guard, prompting him to play a clumsy hook shot that resulted in the ball hitting his glove and flying into the air. As the ball soared, both the wicket-keeper and short fine-leg fielder raced towards it.
With no time to communicate, they collided while attempting to catch the ball, causing concern among the Titans players. However, to everyone’s amazement, Dayal emerged with the ball in his hand after executing a high dive over the wicket-keeper’s gloves.
Upon review, it was revealed that Dayal had made the catch by leaping higher than Saha and using his gloves as a cushion. His incredible effort impressed fans and earned him praise on social media.
Rinku Singh has hit a massive six off Yash Dayal’s delivery! It’s hard to believe, but he’s done it! Rinku Singh managed to hit six consecutive sixes when all seemed lost for his team. As soon as he made contact with the ball, he knew it was going to soar over the boundary line.
The scenes on the field were electric as the Indian Premier League witnessed one of the most thrilling finishes in its illustrious history. Dayal delivered a slower short ball, but Rinku was ready for it. Just like he did with the previous ball, he flat-batted it down the ground for six.
