Veteran wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha, on Tuesday (April 2), once again defied age as he took a stunning diving catch to send back Manish Pandey in the ongoing IPL game between Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Delhi Capitals’ decision to bat first after winning the toss completely backfired as Mohammed Shami gave the reigning champions a solid start with the ball. On the very first ball of the game, he dismissed the dangerous Philip Salt for a duck.
