The 9th match of SA20 2025 is currently being played between Paarl Royals and MI Cape Town. The Royals captain, David Miller, won the toss and decided to bowl first. MI Cape Town, led by Rashid Khan, started their innings with a steady pace.

However, the moment that caught everyone’s attention came in the fifth over. Indian wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik, playing in SA20 for the first time, pulled off an incredible one-handed catch to dismiss Azmatullah Omarzai.

The dismissal happened on the first ball of Dayyaan Galiem’s over. Galiem bowled a length delivery aimed at the stumps. Omarzai tried to clip it but got an edge. The ball flew to Karthik’s right, and he dived full length to grab the ball with one hand. His sharp reflexes sent Omarzai back to the pavilion for 13 runs off 11 balls.

This stunning catch left fans amazed, with many comparing Karthik’s quick reflexes to MS Dhoni, another legendary Indian wicketkeeper.
