Shikhar Dhawan, fondly known as 'Gabbar' is known for his batting exploits all around the world. He is leading Punjab Kings in the IPL 2023 and has once again shown his value with the bat with some fine knocks at the top of the order. However, in the must-win game against DC in the beautiful HPCA Cricket Stadium in Dharamshala, he displayed great antics on the field to take one of the most memorable catches of the 2023 IPL season.

It was the 11th over of DC's innings as they were put into bat by Shikhar Dhawan after winning the toss. Sam Curran was the bowler and he bowled a back-of-a-length slower delivery on off. Warner tried to pull it away, however, he got a big top edge that looped up in the air towards mid off. It looked like the ball will end up falling in no man's land but Shikhar Dhawan had different ideas. He sprinted from covers towards mid off, kept his eyes on the ball and then dived full-length to take a one-handed stunner. The catch was followed up by the trademark 'Gabbar' celebration.

Warner scored 46 off 31 balls and the catch by Dhawan helped Punjab Kings break the 94-run opening stand which was looking pretty dangerous for Punjab.
