The moment unfolded in the 54th match of IPL 2024; Atharwa pulled off a stunner at third man. In the third over, Vaibhav Arora bowled a short-pitched delivery to LSG's star all-rounder, Marcus Stoinis.

Stoinis attempted an uppercut that sailed over the ropes, but the ball boy, in a sensational display, managed to snag the ball, impressing both the coach and the on-air commentators.
