Ben Stokes is making a habit of claiming spectacular boundary catches in the IPL!
Having taken a blinder for Rising Pune Supergiant in his debut IPL season in 2017, the England star was at it again on Wednesday for Rajasthan Royals against Kolkata Knight Riders in Jaipur, albeit in a losing cause.
Knight Riders batsman Robin Uthappa smashed a delivery from spinner Krishnappa Gowtham towards Stokes at long-on but the catch was far from easy with the 26-year-old close to the ropes.
The all-rounder managed to shove the ball back into play as his momentum carried him in the other direction, before treading on the boundary cushion and then taking cleanly as he returned to the field of play.
