Rovman Powell took an amazing catchImage Credit source: Screenshot/Star Sports
The performance of some teams and players in the IPL 2026 season has disappointed a lot. But fielding is one front where there is no difference between the winning and losing teams. The level of fielding has looked very poor this season and dozens of easy catches have been dropped. But some of these players are surprising everyone and taking incredible catches. Rovman Powell of Kolkata Knight Riders is the second fielder, who took a surprising catch with one hand.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Rovman Pavel did this amazing thing in the match held on 3rd May. All this happened in the 11th over of Sunrisers' innings, when the host team was batting first. Sunrisers batsman Heinrich Klaasen was at the crease, who came to the crease after the explosive innings of Travis Head ended and was preparing to take the team to a big score.
Rinku gave life to Classen
Then came the 11th over of Sunrisers' innings, which was being bowled by Cameron Green. On the second ball of this over, Clausen played a high shot at long on. It seemed that the ball would go for a six but there was Rinku Singh, who tried to catch the ball while running. This catch was not very easy but was not very difficult either. But Rinku could not catch it and the ball went for 6 runs. Now, given the form Clausen was in, dropping this catch could have been very costly.
Amazing catch by Powell
He also hit a four on the next ball. But the mistake of playing a high shot on the third consecutive ball proved fatal for him. This time he played a flick shot on Green's ball but Rovman Powell ran and jumped at deep midwicket and took a sensational catch with one hand.

As soon as he took the catch, he fell on the field, his glasses broke and there was a slight injury on his shoulder, but with this catch, he not only surprised everyone, but also gave a big success to KKR and corrected Rinku's mistake. Clason was out after scoring 11 runs, which is also his lowest score in IPL 2026.
