Dhruv Jurel's Stumping of Green in KKR's IPL Win Over RR

In a thrilling Indian Premier League match on April 19, 2026, at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, Rajasthan Royals wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel produced a stunning stumping to dismiss Kolkata Knight Riders batter Cameron Green, earning widespread praise despite his team's four-wicket defeat.

The dismissal occurred in the fifth over of KKR's chase of 156, with Green advancing aggressively down the pitch after a brisk start of 27 runs off 13 balls. Rajasthan Royals spinner Ravi Bishnoi anticipated the move and bowled a googly down the leg side, which turned sharply and evaded the batter. The delivery posed a significant challenge for Jurel, whose view was briefly obstructed by Green. Yet, the young wicketkeeper reacted with remarkable composure, diving to his left to collect the ball cleanly while off-balance. In a fluid, one-handed motion, he flung the ball at the stumps, hitting them directly with only one visible from his position. Green, stranded well outside his crease, was given out after a brief third-umpire review confirmed the clean break of the bails. The effort left KKR reeling at 37 for three, following the early dismissals of openers Ajinkya Rahane and Tim Seifert for ducks.
