Notably, on the first ball of the 14th over Krunal came down the track to smash the lofted straight swipe. The ball went flat and RR fielder Buttler was able to grab a perfect catch to his right and then, while being in the air, he lobbed the ball to his partner, Parag, who was coming in from long-off. Parag did no mistake as he stretched up and back and was able to grab the catch easily.
