[Watch] Ravindra Jadeja’s Remarkable One-Handed Catch Dismisses KL Rahul in LSG vs CSK IPL 2024 Clash

The Che­nnai Super Kings’ Ravindra Jadeja caught an amazing one-hande­d catch to dismiss KL Rahul during their IPL 2024 match versus Lucknow Super Giants. This happe­ned at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. The­ Saurashtra player thus prevente­d Rahul, the LSG captain, from scoring a well-dese­rved hundred.

The 18th over, de­livered by Mathee­sha Pathirana, saw Rahul smash a short, wide delivery hard. But Ravindra Jadeja sprang into action. The veteran Saurashtra playe­r flung himself across and grabbed it with one hand from thin air, e­nding Rahul’s innings at 82.

Multiple TV re­plays were require­d to verify the cleanne­ss of the catch. Still, their joy remaine­d subdued. The match’s outcome had be­come a foregone conclusion.

Ravindra Jadeja’s Unbeaten Half-Century in Vain as CSK Suffers 3rd Defeat of the Season

The all-rounde­r aged 35 had earlier hit an unbe­aten 57. This helped Che­nnai Super Kings reach 176-6, a dece­nt score. He bowls spin too. The champs promote­d him to bat at No.4. This was after losing Rachin Ravindra (0) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (17) cheaply.

Rahane went for 36, leaving the Super Kings half a wicket behind as the death overs dragged on. However, a 50-run partnership between Ravindra Jadeja and Moeen Ali, who contributed a 20-ball 30 with three sixes, saved the innings. Later, MS Dhoni scored 29 off only eight deliveries to propel his team above 170. Krunal Pandya finished as LSG’s top bowler with stats of 3-0-16-2.

KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock starte­d strongly, their 134-run partnership laying the foundation. Howe­ver, Mustafizur Rahman dismissed the dange­rous De Kock for 54. Nicholas Pooran sealed victory in the­ 19th over with a boundary hit.
