In what looked like the catch of the season, Delhi Daredevils’ Corey Anderson took a single-handed stunning catch to draw awe from the stadium as well as thousands others watching the match against Gujarat Lions. (Results | Fixtures | Points Table)
While Pat Cummins bowled a slower to Dinesh Karthik, Anderson stayed calm, moved back and waited to take a jaw-dropping catch with his strong hand, which just looks unbelievable.
The New Zealand all-rounder kept his eyes on the ball, stretched his hand to take a beauty of a catch as Karthik was dismissed for 65, the second best batting performance of the match so far after Suresh Raina’s 77.
Later in the day, Rishabh Pant ran three-fourth the distance to the fine leg boundary to produce a screamer. He dove forward as the ball landed in both his hands to get rid of Aaron Finch for 27.
GL posted 208/7 after Delhi Daredevils won the toss and elected to field first.
