NEW DELHI: Mumbai Indians batters Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav produced priceless reactions that quickly went viral after Shreyas Iyer played a pivotal part in pulling off a stunning catch during the IPL 2026 clash between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.
The moment unfolded in the 18th over when Hardik Pandya looked to shift gears. Facing Marco Jansen, Hardik attempted a big hit but failed to get proper timing, sending the ball high towards long-on. What followed was a piece of fielding brilliance that left everyone stunned.
Iyer sprinted swiftly to his left, tracking the ball near the boundary rope with incredible awareness. Realising he was about to lose balance and step over the boundary, he improvised mid-air, grabbing the ball and, while still airborne, lobbing it back into play towards Xavier Bartlett.
Bartlett completed the catch calmly, but it was Iyer’s athleticism and presence of mind that made it possible.
As soon as the catch was completed, cameras cut to the Mumbai dugout. Rohit, sidelined due to injury, was seen with his hands on his head in disbelief. Suryakumar, too, looked equally stunned, his expression reflecting the sheer improbability of what had just unfolded.
Watch:
Their reactions perfectly captured the magnitude of the moment and quickly spread across social media.
The dismissal proved to be a turning point. Hardik’s wicket for 14 halted Mumbai’s late charge when they were eyeing a total beyond 200. Despite that setback, MI still managed 195/6, thanks largely to a sensational unbeaten 112 from Quinton de Kock and a well-compiled 50 from Naman Dhir.
Yet, even in an innings filled with big runs, it was Iyer’s extraordinary effort on the boundary that stole the spotlight.
In a format where matches can turn in moments, this was a reminder of how a single act of brilliance in the field can shift momentum instantly and leave even the biggest stars in disbelief.
Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer struck impressive half-centuries as Punjab Kings extended their winning streak, cruising to a dominant seven-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians, who slumped to their fourth straight defeat in the Indian Premier League on Thursday.
