RR vs CSK | Twitter stunned as flying Parag takes controversial one handed blinder to dispatch Dube

Rajasthan Royals seized complete control of their encounter against Chennai Super Kings in Guwahati on Sunday after a scintillating opening ball spell from Jofra Archer restricted the visitors to 42/1 in the powerplay during a pursuit of 183. The departure of Rahul Tripathi immediately post the lifting of fielding restrictions made a further dent in the Yellow Army's hopes, and they essentially ended for good when Wanindu Hasaranga got rid of Shivam Dube albeit most of the credit went to Riyan Parag and for good reason.

Dube was looking in fine touch as he struck two early sixes to race to 18 at a strike rate of 200, and tried to add to his tally with an inside shot midway through the 10th over. The Kookaburra seemed destined to pierce the gap through covers and had nearly done so when Parag went sprinting to his right at short extra-cover and put in a full-length leap. Even as the white rock dipped and was about to hit the deck, Parag somehow slipped his fingers under the ball and it stuck to his palm while Parag thudded to the ground.

The Royals skipper immediately wheeled away in celebration with his teammates in pursuit but the umpires were not as thrilled yet as they went upstairs to check the catch. Replays showed that while the catch was fair, Parag might have dragged the ball across the turd in the follow-through but the zoomed visuals were blurred enough to give him the benefit of the doubt and signal Dube to return to the dugout. Twitterati had a lot to say about the incident.
