There is absolutely nothing that Pat Cummins cannot do on the cricket field and he proved it once again on Tuesday during the game between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, Chandigarh.

The SRH captain pulled off a stunning catch to dismiss the dangerous Sam Curran. After SRH's pacers had reduced PBKS to 20 for 3, Sam Curran and Sikandar Raza steadied the ship for the home side. The duo took the team score past the 50-run mark.

However, before they could bat their team to a good position, Pat Cummins came up with a remarkable effort to break the partnership in the 10th over and left PBKS reeling at 58 for 4. On the first ball of the over from T Natarajan, Sam Curran hit the ball over mid-off.

At first, it looked like the ball would sail over Pat Cummins' head. However, the Australian star ran backward and caught the ball with both hands after jumping in the air before falling to the ground. He did well to not drop the ball after losing control of his body. Curran departed after scoring 29 runs off 22 balls with the help of two fours and as many sixes.

Watch the catch from Pat Cummins:

At the time of writing this report, PBKS were 75 for 4 in the 12th over. They need 108 more runs to register their third win of the season. Earlier in the game, SRH recovered from 39 for 3 to post a competitive total of 182/9 in the allotted 20 overs after Shikhar Dhawan won the toss and opted to bowl first.

SRH lost the wickets of Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Aiden Markram inside the powerplay. The likes of Rahul Tripathi and Heinrich Klaasen failed to do well with the bat as well. However, Nitish Reddy came up with a brilliant knock, smashing 64 from just 34 balls to help his side post a good total.
