During the ongoing match 17 between India and Bangladesh in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on October 19, Indian wicket-keeper KL Rahul displayed remarkable skills by executing a stunning one-handed catch to dismiss Bangladesh all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

The breathtaking catch transpired in the first ball of the 25th over when Indian pacer Mohammad Siraj delivered a back-of-a-length delivery, appearing to veer down the leg side. Mehidy Hasan managed a slight tickle, and it initially seemed like he had evaded Rahul’s grasp. However, in a display of exceptional athleticism, Rahul stretched fully to his left, thrust out his left hand, and secured the catch single-handedly.
