There is no denying the fact that fielding efforts play a crucial role in the result of a match. Such a noteworthy moment occurred on Saturday afternoon when Delhi Capitals (DC) player, Aman Khan took an absolute screamer to dismiss dangerous-looking Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB skipper Faf du Plessis in order to give his side the opening breakthrough.
Earlier in the game, DC skipper, David Warner asked the hosts to bat first on a slow-looking track. Delhi Capitals introduced Aman Khan in place of Mukesh Kumar in the XI on Saturday ahead of Match 20 of IPL 2023 against Royal Challengers Bangalore, taking place at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.

The incident took place in the fifth ball of the fifth over, bowled by Mitchell Marsh, as he delivered a was a length ball outside the off stump. Du Plessis tried to whip the ball toward midwicket, but Aman, placed at short mid-wicket, made sure the ball wouldn’t go far away.

They were expecting to see him go big, but Aman’s magnificent work on the field did not allow them to witness it.
