Rajasthan Royals (RR)’s Shimron Hetmyer took an outstanding catch to get rid of in-form Mitchell Marsh in their IPL 2025 match against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday, April 19. The Aussie batter walked back for just four runs off six balls as the Super Giants lost their first wicket for 16 runs.
The dismissal came in the third over of LSG’s innings. Jofra Archer bowled a length ball outside off, and Marsh went for a wild swipe but failed to connect it properly. All he managed was a top edge that went up high in the sky, and Hetmyer ran in from deep square leg to settle underneath it. He completed the catch before diving forward to ensure he held onto the ball.

With the wicket, Jofra Archer continued his impressive form for the Royals after returning with figures of 2/32 against Delhi Capitals (DC) in his last game.
