The catch was taken in the 15th over of the KKR innings. Nitish Rana was looking dangerous in the middle and was charging down on pacers when Aiden Markram decided to take the ball. The SRH skipper bowled a slower delivery just outside off which turned away. Rana, who was hitting every ball from the middle until that point, only managed to get a top edge, which went high into the sky. Reacting quickly, Markram ran down to long-on and then threw himself in a full-stretch dive to complete the catch.
This stunning catch was the highlight of the match and set the tone for the rest of the innings. KKR eventually posted a total of 171/9 on the board, thanks to some good batting performances by Rinku Singh and Nitish Rana. Rinku Singh was the top scorer for KKR with 46 runs. All-rounder Andre Russell also played a handy inning with 15-ball 24.
For SRH, every bowler was among the wickets. However, Marco Jansen was top of the lot as he took 2 wickets in an over to push KKR back early on in the innings. T. Natarajan also had a good outing with the ball, picking up 2 wickets while giving away 30 runs. Mayank Markande, Aiden Markram, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Kartik Tyagi picked one wicket each.
