Sunrisers Hyderabad star player Heinrich Klaasen made up for his previous mistake by dismissing Ayush Mhatre with a brilliant grab. A catch which was unexpected not only for young Mhatre but also for bowler Nitish Kumar Reddy.
Sunrisers Hyderabad are looking for their third win of the season and had high hopes from their two uncapped pacers, who took eight wickets each in the last game against Rajasthan Royals; However, both scored a lot of runs in this game.
Home team Sunrisers Hyderabad came into the game early after Nitish Kumar Reddy dismissed Sanju Samson on the very first ball of his spell. Heinrich Klaasen completed the catch with excellent decision.
After Mhatre’s early dismissal, Heinrich Klaasen made up for it with a brilliant blinder.
The wicketkeeper batsman no longer plays with gloves as first Ishan Kishan and now Salil Arora use gloves for SRH. However, Klaasen is also known for his skills on the field, especially his safe pair of hands under the night sky.
However, when Ayush Mhatre skied Nitish Kumar Reddy’s third ball of the same over, he missed a catch as he raced backwards. He had to bear the brunt of the drop as he added 30 runs in the next 9 balls.
However, Mhatre started limping towards the end of Reddy’s second over, and finally pushed on a wide delivery, but Klaasen jumped and grabbed one out of thin air to dismiss the batsman. The diving effort will certainly go down as one of the best catches of the season.
