Watch: Yashasvi Jaiswal takes stunner at slip in Mumbai vs Karnataka Ranji Trophy 2025-26 Quarterfinal

Indian opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal is busy with domestic cricket, while he took a stunning catch at the slip during the fourth innings of the Mumbai vs Karnataka match in the Quarterfinal of the Ranji Trophy 2025-26.

Mumbai set a 325-run fourth innings target for Karnataka, while Karnataka opener KL Rahul and skipper-cum-the no.3 batter Devdutt Padikkal had a brilliant 84-run partnership for the second wicket.

Yashasvi Jaiswal grabbed stunning catch to dismiss Karnataka captain Devdutt Padikkal

The off-spinner Tanush Kotian provided the key breakthrough for Mumbai by dismissing Devdutt Padikkal, while the full credit of that wicket goes to Yashasvi Jaiswal. Jaiswal was at the slip, while Padikkal played a shot, but the ball had an outside edge to travel to the slip fielder. It was a matter of an instant reaction, and the slip fielder Jaiswal stunningly grabbed that opportunity after timely moving to his low left position. Padikkal was dismissed for 39 runs, as Karnataka were battling at 96/2.

Mumbai fighting after trailing in first innings

After scoring five runs in the first innings of the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 36 off 43 balls with four fours and two sixes. 

In the first innings, while Mumbai were bowled out for only 120 runs, where Akhil Herwadkar scored a valuable 60 runs, Karnataka replied with 173 all out, majorly thanks to the opener Mayank Agarwal's 90-run knock. 

In their second innings, Mumbai scored 377 runs to set the challenging 325-run fourth innings target for Karnataka. While Akash Anand scored 70 and Musheer Khan scored 49 runs, lower-order batters Tanush Kotian (48*) and Tushar Deshpande (47) had a crucial 89-run partnership for the ninth wicket, with both batters scoring important 40s.
