Kane Williamson wasn’t quite at his fluent best with the bat during his side’s first game of the IPL 2021 second leg against the Delhi Capitals in Dubai, enduring a 26-ball struggle for 18. However, he made a mark with an outstanding catch while running backwards, to get rid of Prithvi Shaw.

Prithvi Shaw, having earned a streaky boundary courtesy of an outside edge past the keeper earlier in the over, went for another hoick across the line off a relatively slower ball on a length from Khaleel Ahmed. With no timing, the ball hung in the air but threatened to fall away from Williamson, who sprinted backward from mid-on to complete a fine running catch.

Sunil Gavaskar, on-air, reminisced about Kapil Dev’s historic catch to dismiss Viv Richards in the 1983 World Cup final, which would go on to become one of the game’s most iconic moments.
