The very first ball of the match 43, brought a wicket for the Sunrisers! A dual effort from Mohammad Shami and Abhishek Sharma resulted in the first gift of the day. Shami bowled, dipping the ball at the length that swung outside and kissed the bat of the young Shaik Rasheed and reached the slip. Abhishek Sharma, assigned there, took the catch. It felt like the ball would easily fly away but got trapped in Abhishek's palm! It was more an effort from the ball itself than the fielders! Even while doing the celebratory high fives with his teammates, Abhishek was mimicking his own baffled reaction while he took the catch.
