The Abu Dhabi T10 League final saw an absolute stunner from Jos Buttler and it was a moment to remember. The Deccan Gladiators superstar pulled off a jaw-dropping catch to send Faf du Plessis packing, and it couldn’t have come at a better time for his team.

Jos Buttler’s Catch Sent Faf du Plessis Packing

It all went down on the third ball of the eighth over when Morrisville Samp Army was trying to shift gears. Faf du Plessis, who looked set with 34 off 23 balls, was ready to launch another big shot.

Richard Gleeson bowled a slower, full-length delivery, perfect bait for a batter looking to go big. And Du Plessis went for it, swinging with all his might. But he didn’t get the connection he wanted, and the ball sailed towards cow corner.

That’s when Jos Buttler came into the picture. Standing at deep mid-wicket, he sprinted full tilt to his left, covering serious ground. And then came the magic—a full-stretch dive, arms outstretched, and he grabbed the ball with both hands just before it kissed the turf.


It wasn’t just a catch, it was pure artistry. The crowd erupted, the commentators couldn’t stop raving, and even Faf had to pause for a second, knowing he was done in by brilliance.

How Buttler’s Catch Changed The Game

Notably, Buttler’s effort came at a crucial moment. Du Plessis was the key to Morrisville’s acceleration, and with him gone, the runs dried up. The Samp Army could only manage 104/7 in their 10 overs, a total that looks light, especially in a final.

Buttler’s brilliance didn’t just stop the runs; it also lifted the Gladiators’ spirits. It’s moments like these that win matches, and Buttler showed why he’s a game-changer, whether with the bat or in the field.
