The Chennai team in the Dream11 IPL 2020 is not recognized as a top fielding unit. However, with renowned names like Ravindra Jadeja and Faf du Plessis in their ranks, the team depends on the two for fielding brilliance. Both the cricketers were at their best during the side's clash against Kolkata as they pocketed an incredible catch to put a full stop to Sunil Narine's innings. 

Kolkata's pinch hitter Sunil Narine was starting to look dangerous before a marvellous effort from Ravindra Jadeja and Faf du Plessis curtailed his quick-fire cameo. Narine smashed a lofted stroke to leg-spinner Karn Sharma towards the cow-corner. Ravindra Jadeja's athleticism needs no introduction and is considered to have one of the safest pairs of hands in world cricket. Faf du Plessis also has guarded the boundary line for Chennai in the Dream11 IPL 2020 diligently.
