During the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) match between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), SRH's Sanvir Singh took a blinder of a catch to dismiss LSG star all-rounder Marcus Stoinis.
The incident happened on the fifth over of the game when Sanvir produced a moment of brilliance to get the better of the Aussie right-hander.
Seeking to capitalize on the fielding restrictions during the powerplay, Stoinis attempted to power a delivery from Bhuvneshwar Kumar over mid-wicket. Stoinis connected high on his bat, causing the ball to loop towards mid-on.
Initially appearing as though it might fall shy of Sanvir Singh due to lack of flight, the young player displayed sheer agility and made a leap for a catch. With a remarkable dive, he snatched the ball just inches above the ground, leaving Stoinis and all the spectators stunned.

Marcus Stoinis started walking off looking perplexed as he expressed dissatisfaction with the third umpire's decision not to review the catch from different angles. He was spotted engaging in a discussion with the on-field umpires before departing from the field.
Speaking about the match, LSG had a shaky start to their innings. After the slow start, middle-order batters Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Pooran slammed respective fifties to make amends and propel LSG to a competitive total of 165 for 4 in their 20 overs.
The match will be crucial for both teams, who are both tied on 12 points and a win tonight will further consolidate either of their chances for a spot in the upcoming IPL 2024 playoffs.
