Defending Champions Gujarat Titans are on top of the Delhi Capitals in the match. DC are 78/6 at the end of 15 overs and are reeling. Mohammed Shami rattled their top order with a fiery spell of 4/11 in his four overs.

Shami picked up the wickets of Phil Salt (0), Priyam Garg (10), Rilee Rossouw (8) and Manish Pandey (1). And in his second over, Manish Pandey’s wicket was Shami’s 3rd and Saha’s second catch in the inning.

The veteran keeper has picked up 3 catches so far in the match, but the catch to dismiss Pandey was excellent. Saha flung himself to his right and completed the one-handed grab to send Pandey back into the pavilion, which was also his 100th dismissal in IPL.

The Siliguri-born wicketkeeper is only the third player to complete 100+ dismissals in IPL, following CSK skipper MS Dhoni and RCB’s Dinesh Karthik. Wriddhiman added one more to his tally as Priyam Garg’s edge also found his gloves.

Saha, in total, has 101 dismissals so far, 78 catches and 23 stumpings in total. The 38-year-old is playing IPL since 2008. He has played for Kolkata Knight Riders, Punjab Kings, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans in the IPL.
