Deepak Hooda grabbed an impressive catch, dismissing Daryl Mitchell inexpensively. It occurred during the IPL 2024 match between Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants at MA Chidambaram Stadium on April 23. Mitchell’s departure at 11 runs from 10 balls left CSK 49/2 after 5.2 overs. The catch was brilliant. Daryl Mitchell scored cheaply. Lucknow Super Giants batted first.
The dismissal occurred in the sixth over of the CSK innings. Daryl Mitchell attempted to pull Yash Thakur’s back-of-length delivery in front of square. Deepak Hooda dived to his left from mid-wicket to clinch a spectacular catch. That happened after Thakur dropped Mitchell in his second over.
