It needed a special effort from Trent Boult to dismiss Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli. The New Zealand import in Delhi Daredevils squad pulled off a stunning catch to help his side remove Kohli. The RCB skipper, along with AB de Villiers, was going strong and smashing DD bowlers all-around the ground when Boult fielding near deep square leg took a one-handed catch. Boult from nowhere plucked the ball from the air and then balanced himself to perfection to complete the catch. RCB vs DD IPL 2018 Scorecard

The fast-bowler could have easily toppled over the boundary rope, but thanks to his athleticism, he held onto it to stun the crowd present at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. It was not a best of the delivery from Harshal Patel as he bowled a full toss on Kohli’s legs. The right-hander chipped it believing he can clear the fielder. However, Boult came in-between and stunned Kohli. TV replays showed even Kohli was shocked by Boult’s super effort. RCB vs DD- As it Happened

Meanwhile, the 'flying Kiwi' was all over the Twitter and Twitterati couldn’t stop praising Boult for his catch.

It was an important catch at that stage of the game as Kohli was batting on 30. But, unfortunately for Delhi, it was AB de Villiers who then batted the visitors out of the contest. De Villiers smashed an impressive half-century after adding 63 off just 41 balls for the third wicket with Kohli. The right-hander finished unbeaten on 90 off just 39 balls as RCB chased down the target in 18 overs.
