Dinesh Karthik, batting on 65 was going strong and things were looking bleak for fielding side Delhi Daredevils (DD). Along with Suresh Raina, Karthik formed a 133 runs partnership.
But out of the blue, the Kiwi player took a blinder of a catch in the mid-off. Anderson followed the ball as it came towards him and suddenly took a leap and snatched it from the air with his left-hand.
Here is the video of the catch:

Everyone, including the batsman, was taken aback at such an effort from Anderson.
Gujarat Lions (GL) were off to a sloppy start losing both of their openers Dwayne Smith and Brendon McCullum in the second over.
But captain Suresh Raina and Dinesh Karthik completely wrecked the Delhi bowling forming a partnership of 133 runs.
Gujarat Lions finally posted 208 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in their 20 overs. Delhi need 209 to win the match.
