Fielding brilliance can turn matches, and Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) Harshal Patel provided a moment of magic to dismiss the Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) in-form batter, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. As KKR looked to accelerate, Raghuvanshi, having already smashed a well-compiled fifty, attempted an aggressive stroke but found himself undone by a smart piece of bowling and an even better catch.

Harshal Patel’s moment of brilliance

Kamindu Mendis, introduced into the attack, delivered a loopy ball on a length outside off, enticing Raghuvanshi into a big shot. The KKR batter, seeing an opportunity, aimed for an inside-out stroke over cover but mistimed his attempt. Instead of finding the sweet spot, he ended up slicing the ball towards a deep backward point. As the ball traveled towards the boundary, Harshal sprinted in from the deep, keeping his eyes locked on the dipping white Kookaburra.

In a breathtaking display of agility and precision, he slid forward, stretched out his hands, and scooped up the ball just inches before it touched the turf. It was a catch that required perfect timing and judgment, and Patel executed it flawlessly, ensuring that Raghuvanshi had no second chance. This dismissal was a massive moment in the match, as Raghuvanshi was KKR’s set batter, scoring a fluent 50 off just 32 balls, including five boundaries and two sixes. His strike rate of 156.25 was propelling KKR towards a strong total, but his departure put the brakes on their momentum at the time of dismissal.

KKR set a stiff target for SRH with Venkatesh Iyer’s blazing knock

KKR put up an impressive total of 200/6 in their 20 overs against SRH at Eden Gardens, thanks to a power-packed innings by Venkatesh Iyer. After an early collapse that saw Quinton de Kock and Sunil Narine depart cheaply, Ajinkya Rahane and young Raghuvanshi steadied the innings. Raghuvanshi’s 50 off 32 balls provided much-needed momentum before Iyer took charge. His explosive 60 off just 29 balls, studded with seven fours and three sixes, powered KKR past the 200-run mark. Rinku Singh’s fiery 32 not out off 17 ensured a strong finish despite some disciplined bowling from Mohammed Shami and Zeeshan Ansari.
