IPL 2025: Best Catch of the Match – LSG vs CSK, Match 30

On Monday, April 14, during the first over of Match 30 of the current Indian Premier League between the Chennai Super Kings and the Lucknow Super Giants, Rahul Tripathi brilliantly grabbed on to a leading edge off Aiden Markram’s bat at cover point. This is Tripathi’s 100th IPL match, which is noteworthy.

Markram tried to whip a straight ball from left-armer Khaleel Ahmed towards the leg side. But off the outside portion of the tilted bat, the ball flew straight up in the air. Once the ball was in the air, Tripathi immediately started to run behind him to lunge at the last second and hang onto a beautiful grab.

WHAT A CATCH! Certainly a contender for Catch of the Season!

Just the start #RahulTripathi wanted in his 100th IPL match!
