The Gujarat Titans (GT) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are clashing at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Rahul Tewatia nearly produced one of the stunning moments of the tournament with an incredible fielding effort near the boundary. The 13th over was bowled by leg-spinner Rashid Khan against SRH batters Heinrich Klaasen and Abhishek Sharma. The fifth ball bowled to Klaasen, where he freed his arms and lofted the ball towards long-off.

The ball seemed somehow to have the elevation to clear the boundary ropes for a six, but Tewatia jumped his leap perfectly and grabbed the ball with his left hand. As he landed near the ropes and felt he might touch the boundary lines and so, he released the ball just in time to avoid stepping over. The GT all rounder could not complete the catch, but with his effort, the ball did not go for six.

Watch the viral Rahul Tewatia catch here:

In the first innings, GT posted a total of 224. Shubman Gill led from the front with 76 off 38 balls, and Sai Sudharsan (48 off 23) scored his part in the powerplay. The England batter Jos Buttler hammered 64 off 37 deliveries. For SRH, Jaydev Unadkat picked up three wickets in the final over and ended with figures of 3/35 from his four-over spell.

SRH are struggling at ninth in the points table in the IPL 2025 points standings, and desperately need a win to stay in playoff contention.
