Watch: Shahrukh Khan Takes A Diving Blinder To Dismiss Faf Du Plessis
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is always known to provide the spectacular and the new season has been surprising fans with some outlandish highlights. One such moment occurred during Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) ongoing IPL 2022 match vs Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Sunday. With RCB captain Faf du Plessis looking invincible with his bat during the first innings, Shahrukh Khan produced a spectacular catch to send the former CSK player back to the pavilion.

The South African tried to clear long off but ended up chipping it well in front and Shahrukh put in a diving catch to grab hold of it at long off.
