Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder Rovman Powell took an incredible one-handed catch to get out SunRisers Hyderabad batter Heinrich Klaasen during their IPL 2026 match at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Sunday, May 3. Klaasen was out for just 11 runs off 9 balls, and SRH lost their third wicket at 117.
The moment happened within the eleventh over. Cameron Green bowled a brief ball outside off stump, and Klaasen tried to tug it but didn’t hit it properly. The ball went towards the leg side where Powell, standing at deep mid-wicket, ran to his right and jumped.
He managed to grab the ball with one hand while within the air. Regardless that he fell down, he kept control of the ball. The TV umpire checked it fastidiously and confirmed it was a good catch. Throughout the effort, Powell even broke his sunglasses.

SunRisers Hyderabad lose grip as Kolkata Knight Riders mount strong comeback
Kolkata Knight Riders, led by Ajinkya Rahane, made a comeback after SunRisers Hyderabad began well of their IPL 2026 match. Varun Chakaravarthy gave KKR an enormous breakthrough by dismissing Travis Head for a fast 61 off 28 balls.
Earlier, Cameron Green removed Heinrich Klaasen, while Kartik Tyagi dismissed Abhishek Sharma for 15 off 10. On the time of writing, SRH were 131/4 in 13 overs, with Ishan Kishan (34 off 24) and Aniket Verma (2 off 4) batting.
Earlier, the Pat Cummins-led SRH had chased down an enormous goal of 244 against Mumbai Indians of their last match. They’ve won six out of nine games up to now and are placed third on the IPL 2026 points table. One other win would make it five victories in a row.
Then again, KKR have won their last two matches but are still eighth on the table, with just two wins in eight games, together with one shared point against Punjab Kings as a consequence of a rain-hit match. That is the second time these two teams are facing one another this season. Last time, SRH defeated KKR by 65 runs at Eden Gardens.
