The cricketing biosphere has been centre stage for various magical moments produced by athletes. The IPL 2024 exemplifies this rich trend in cricketing annals with Ravi Bishnoi’s flying take off his bowling to dismiss Kane Williamson can be one of the best catches of the ongoing season of IPL.

Winning the toss and opting to bat first did not fare out well for the Lucknow Super Giants initially as Quinton de Kock and Devdutt Padikkal fell cheaply inside the third over. However, endeavours from Marcus Stoinis, KL Rahul, and Nicholas Pooran propelled the home side to 163 in 20 overs. In response, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan offered a stable 54-run partnership before the visitors stumbled against the LSG bowling attack with Ravi Bishnoi’s flying catch raising the bar of IPL 2024.

Following a two-run seventh over, Bishnoi sprayed a flighted delivery at the stumps on the second ball of the eighth over against Williamson. The Kiwi tried to reach the pitch of the ball and jab it straight past the bowler but things escalated differently for his disgrace. The in-drifter ballooned off the inside half of the willow towards the right of Bishnoi and the Jodhpur-bred outstretched himself in the air to snaffle the ball with his right hand, thereby completing a brilliant catch by maintaining good body balance. Seeing, the spinner take an extraordinary catch off his bowling in a fraction of a second left the Twitterverse in applause.

What on earth!!!!
