In the penultimate delivery of the first innings, Dwayne Bravo delivered a length ball around off to tail-end batsman Shivam Mavi, who went in for the big one only to nick the ball off the outside edge. Dhoni dived full length to his right, but the ball slipped off his gloves, but sprung once again to his right to take the rebound and complete the dismissal.

With the catch, Dhoni surpassed Karthik to set the record for most catches by a wicketkeeper in IPL history. With a total of four catches in the match. Dhoni took his IPL career tally to 104 catches, standing one ahead of Karthik's 103.
