RCB vs SRH: In the first match of IPL 2026, Phil Salt stole the show with his fielding.

He took not one or two but three catches in the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad and the catch he took on the boundary to dismiss Hyderabad captain and explosive batsman Ishan Kishan is something you would like to see not once but again and again.

Before getting out, Kishan batted in a stormy manner and scored 80 runs in 38 balls at a strike rate of 210.53, hitting 8 fours and 5 sixes.

This was his first match as the captain of Hyderabad and it seemed that he would score his first century for Hyderabad as captain but Salt had other intentions.

This catch was seen on the last ball of the 16th over. When Kishan tried to hit a six on the off side on Abhinandan Singh’s full toss ball.

The keeper-batsman had just opened the bat and it looked like the ball would cross the boundary but Salt came running from deep backward point, leapt to his right and took a brilliant one-handed catch. After seeing this catch of his, some fans are considering it as one of the best catches of the tournament.

However, before getting out, Kishan had done the work for his team. He also made many records in which by scoring 2 runs during this innings, Kishan completed his 3000 runs in IPL.

He has become the 29th player in the history of the tournament to reach this figure. Apart from this, he has reached the sixth position as an Indian in terms of scoring 3000 IPL runs in the fewest number of balls. By achieving this milestone in 2180 balls, he has left KL Rahul behind in this list.
