Dinesh Karthik lauded for game-changing flying catch to his left vs Rajasthan: Watch

Kolkata defeated Rajasthan by 60 runs on Sunday, November 1 to strengthen their play-offs chances in the ongoing Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season. Dinesh Karthik, who stepped down as Kolkata skipper earlier this season, collected four catches behind the stumps during the course of Rajasthan’s faltering run-chase at Dubai. One of those catches was a flying grab by the wicketkeeper to send Rajasthan’s in-form batsman Ben Stokes packing back to the pavilion.

Dream11 IPL 2020: Dinesh Karthik catch vs Rajasthan lauded by fans of the franchise

Batting first, Kolkata batsmen stockpiled 191-7 off their 20 overs. Despite the run-fest, Dinesh Karthik failed to contribute with the bat as he got out for a first-ball duck to Rajasthan spinner Rahul Tewatia. However, the seasoned T20 campaigner made up for his batting blunder later in the evening by pocketing four catches behind the stumps, including a high-flying blinder to dismiss Ben Stokes.

During the third over of the Rajasthan innings, Stokes attempted an ambitious drive off pacer Pat Cummins. In response, the Kolkata fast bowler managed to induce a thick outside edge towards wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik, who flew full-length to his left to catch the ball. Karthik’s blinder was lauded by fans and commentators alike, with some of them even describing his effort as the ‘best catch of the season so far’. Here is a look at some of the fan reactions to Dinesh Karthik catch vs Rajasthan from the latest Dream11 IPL 2020 game.
