Watch: Wayne Parnell's one handed catch to dismiss Wriddhiman Saha shocks fans on social media

In the 70th match of Indian Premier League 2023, Royal Challengers Bangalore faced defending champions Gujarat Titans at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore. While batting first in a do-or-die game, former RCB skipper Virat Kohli smashed another century.

In his second consecutive century, Virat scored unbeaten 101 runs off 61 balls with the help of 13 boundaries and a six. However, Chasing 198 runs GT got a shaky start as wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha was dismissed by Mohammed Siraj. That wicket is more from Wayne Parnell than Siraj as he clinched one of the most impressive catches of the season.

On the third ball of the over, Saha skipped down the track and thumped the drive over the infield, and for a brief second, he appeared to have placed it well enough to claim a boundary. Wayne Parnell, on the other hand, leapt to his full height and plucked the ball out of thin air with his left hand.
