KL Rahul took his third catch in the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 Final.
KL Rahul is enjoying the Hubballi with his third catch in the Karnataka vs Jammu and Kashmir Ranji Trophy 2025-26 Final. He took a stunning third catch to dismiss Kanhaiya Wadhawan and hand the first wicket to Shikhar Shetty.
Bowling the 131st over on Day 2 of the Karnataka vs Jammu and Kashmir match-up, left-armer Shikhar Shetty scalped his first wicket. He edged out the 24-year-old keeper-batter at 70 runs, including nine fours.
KL Rahul, guarding the first slip, received the ball, but didn’t hold it. It deflected twice before Rahul completed a clean catch and celebrated by throwing it again in the air, only to catch it again.
Shetty was elated to scalp a wicket after a rather patchy spell, and celebrated in unison.
