During the seventh match of the ongoing seventh season of the Pakistan Super League between Quetta Gladiators and Multan Sultans at the National Stadium in Karachi, Multan’s left-arm spinner Khushdil Shah took a blinder of a catch to dismiss Gladiators’ opening batter Will Smeed.
The event happened during the second delivery of the 3rd Over with Quetta chasing the score of 174/3 posted by Multan.
Khushdil bowled a short but a quick delivery around the stomach height to right-handed Smeed as his eyes got lit up and mind ready to dismiss the ball from his sight. He went on the back foot alright, but got hurried away courtesy the pacey delivery, and ultimately managed to smack the delivery straight back towards the umpire.
Quick to react, Khushdil threw himself to his right and grabbed a two-handed stunner to send Will Smeed packing at the score of 3 (5).
On what seems to be a relatively tacky surface, Multan skipper Mohammad Rizwan handed the new ball to Khushdil, and the 26-year-old did oblige by giving away only three runs in the opening Over.
Post picking up the first wicket in only his second Over, Khushdil picked up yet another wicket in his 3rd Over to get rid of in-form Ahsan Ali. His bowling figures so far, at the time of writing, read 3-0-7-2.
