Rajasthan Royals (RR) fast bowler, Trent Boult is often known for taking wickets in the first over of the innings by effectively swinging the new ball both ways. However, the left-arm seamer improved his brilliance by taking a phenomenal catch to dismiss Prabhsimran Singh and offering no celebration after the dismissal.

Punjab Kings (PBKS) are locking horns with RR in a do-or-die match and they had a disappointing start to the decisive game. The visitors opted to bowl first after winning the toss and Trent Boult was seen bowling the first over of the game. He provided a breakthrough to the team in the second over but more than his delivery the manner of dismissal was noteworthy as the New Zealand pacer took a sensational catch.

Boult bowled a length ball to Prabhsimran Singh which was seaming back into him. The batter was tentative while playing the shot and his mistimed stroke flew just to the right of the pacer. Boult immediately adjusted his follow-through and took an exceptional catch while diving to his right. What was more surprising is the fact that even though it was a superb piece of fielding, he didn’t celebrate the wicket as if dismissing the batter was a pretty easy task for him.

Here is the video of the catch by Trent Boult:
