In a moment of pure athleticism and grit, Kolkata Knight Riders' Rovman Powell delivered a jaw-dropping one-handed catch that not only dismissed a dangerous Heinrich Klaasen but also shattered his own sunglasses in the process. The stunning effort came during the IPL 2026 clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.

Fielding at deep mid-wicket, Powell tracked the ball expertly, moving to his right before launching into a full-stretch dive to pluck Klaasen's shot out of the air with one hand. The SRH batter had just smashed a six earlier in the over and was looking to accelerate, but Powell's brilliance cut his innings short at just 11 runs off Cameron Green's bowling. The catch instantly went viral, with fans marveling at how Powell managed to hold onto the ball even as his sunglasses snapped under the pressure of the dive.

The dismissal came in the 11th over, with SRH seemingly in control after Travis Head's explosive half-century. Klaasen, known for his big-hitting prowess, tried to clear the boundary for a second consecutive time but couldn't get the desired distance as Powell completed the sensational grab.

This was just one highlight in a remarkable bowling performance from KKR. Varun Chakravarthy continued his impressive resurgence, claiming a three-wicket haul (3/26), while veteran Sunil Narine reached a historic milestone by grabbing his 200th IPL wicket. Their combined efforts in the middle overs triggered a spectacular collapse from SRH, who were bowled out for just 165 in 19 overs after looking dominant at 107/2 halfway through their innings.

SRH had stormed to 77/1 after the powerplay, powered by Head's second consecutive fifty (61 off 28 balls). But what followed was a stunning turnaround, with KKR's bowlers claiming nine wickets in the final 10 overs while conceding just 60 runs. It marked the first time SRH were bowled out in IPL 2026, with Kartik Tyagi also chipping in with 2/30 to complete the demolition job.
