IPL 2023: Ranking best catches of the tournament
These players pulled off some incredible grabs in the T20 extravaganza held for 60 days.
1. Rashid Khan vs Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), Match 51
Rashid Khan performed phenomenally for Gujarat Titans (GT) in IPL 2023. Claiming 27 wickets in 17 matches at an economy of 8.23, he made it to the list of highest wicket-takers in the tournament. In Gujarat’s massive 56-run triumph over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the 51st game held at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Rashid also got the Catch of the Match award for pulling off a fabulous blinder.
Following a huge target of 228, LSG started positively with the aggressive batting performances from Kyle Mayers and Quinton de Kock. Both batters were exuding confidence with their batting, and also turning out to be dangerous for the hosts. On the second ball of the ninth over, Mohit Sharma bowled a slower short ball to Mayers, which the Caribbean attempted to play a hook shot but it touched the top edge of his bat and went to deep square leg where Rashid was posted.
Noting the catch coming towards him, Rashid didn’t make any mistake and utlised the opportunity by running through his right and grabbing a breathtaking stunner with his both hands. Eventually, Rashid won the Catch of the Season award for his efforts.
