WATCH- MI Emirates' Trent Boult’s one-handed stunning catch against Abu Dhabu Knight Riders in ILT20 2024

MIE defeated ABKR by 8 wickets in the 12th match of the ILT20 2024.

The ongoing ILT20 2024 league saw one of the best catches in cricket courtesy New Zealand’s Trent Boult. The catch happened in the 12^th match of the tournament between MI Emirates and Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders were asked to bat first by MI Emirates captain Nicholas Pooran. Thanks to Andre Russell’s 46* and Sam Hain’s 40 and contributions by Michael Pepper and Alishan Sharafu, ABKR posted 188/5 in 20 overs. For MIE, Fazalhaq Farooqi picked 3/35.

One of those wickets was of Laurie Evans, who in the 18^th over, tried to hit Farooqi towards long off. However, an ever-ready Boult eyed the flying ball perfectly as he pulled off a dive and rolled down to complete a beautiful catch off his left hand. Evans returned to the dugout for a duck having faced two balls.

“He can play for another 2-3 seasons,” CSK pacer Deepak Chahar believes MS Dhoni still has a lot of cricket left in him
