DC vs DRH | Twitter reacts as Kane Williamson takes a spectacular running catch to dismiss Prithvi Shaw

Kane Williamson wasn’t quite at his fluent best with the bat during his side’s first game of the IPL 2021 second leg against the Delhi Capitals in Dubai, enduring a 26-ball struggle for 18. However, he made a mark with an outstanding catch while running backwards, to get rid of Prithvi Shaw.

Prithvi Shaw, having earned a streaky boundary courtesy of an outside edge past the keeper earlier in the over, went for another hoick across the line off a relatively slower ball on a length from Khaleel Ahmed. With no timing, the ball hung in the air but threatened to fall away from Williamson, who sprinted backward from mid-on to complete a fine running catch.

Sunil Gavaskar, on-air, reminisced about Kapil Dev’s historic catch to dismiss Viv Richards in the 1983 World Cup final, which would go on to become one of the game’s most iconic moments.
