In the ongoing match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at teh MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, a big breakthrough moment came when Kagiso Rabada tricked Sameer Rizvi into playing an ill-timed shot that resulted in a stunning catch by Harshal Patel near the boundary.

Watch the video here:


Rizvi who walked out as an impact player failed to make a big impact as his innings was brought to an end for just 21 runs. Rabada delivered a short of length ball around the off-stump. Rizvi attempted to play the shot at the back foot by swaying his body, however,  failed to get the desired timing on it and hit the ball deep at the third man where Harshal Patel secured the catch. Harshal Patel's catch was no less than Yuzvendra Chahal's iconic sitting sideways on the pitch pose.

Having won the toss, Punjab Kings opted to bowl first and that proved to be a tasteful decision for Sam Curran and Co. as they successfully managed to remove CSK's big threats within the powerplay itself. At the time of writing, CSK is at 111/4 with Moeen Ali and Ruturaj Gaikwad taking charge at the crease with the aim to stabilise Chennai's total.
