In Match 21 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, Rahul Tripathi took a stunning catch to assist SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar in dismissing Gujarat Titans (GT) batter, Shubman Gill. Before losing his wicket in the third over, Gill could only muster seven runs off nine balls. Gill hammered a length delivery around off to the left of Tripathi at covers with a lot of power, and it looked set for a boundary. Tripathi, on the other hand, had other ideas and dove in headfirst for a one-handed stunner.
Here is the video of Tripathi's stunning one-handed catch to dismiss Gill:

Meanwhile, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan took a wicket each against GT.
However, a fine half-century by Kane Williamson powered SRH to an eight-wicket win.
The 31-year-old Tripathi joined SRH in the mega auction ahead of this season. The Hyderabad franchise purchased him for Rs 8.50 crore.
He has played in 65 IPL matches, registering 1468 runs with a high score of 93.
SRH are currently eighth in the IPL 2022 Points Table with two wins and two defeats. In three games, the Kane Williamson-led side has registered four points.
