In the 32nd match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021, Raj🎃asthan Royals (RR) sealed a thrill♛ing final over win against Punjab Kings (PBKS) at Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Tuesda🍬y.
From Rajasthan’s batters power-hitting to Punjab batsmen counter approach and, of course, the brilliant last over by Kartik Tyagi, there were many momeᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚnts in the match that impressed several fans across the world.
Another such incident that captured maximum eyeballs was a sensational fielding effort by PBKS’ overseas recruit Fabian Allen.
Allen took a stunning catch to dismiss England’s power-striker, Liam Livingstone. It all happened in the 12th over of RR’s innings bowled by Arshdeep Singh.
The left-armer bowled a slower delivery and forced the batter to have a go at it. Livingstone tried to clear the boundary ropes in deep midwicket, but Allen had other plans, as💝 he put a spectacular full-length dive to catch the white-leather.
