Summary
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Glenn Phillips. The Gujarat Titans (GT) all-rounder has time and again evoked awe and wonder with his athleticism in the field, and he did exactly that once again during match 14 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday (April 8).
Phillips dove spectacularly in his attempt to complete a highly improbable catch of Delhi Capitals (DC) opener KL Rahul in the sixth over. Ashok Sharma was the bowler, and Rahul attempted a big shot but got a bottom edge instead that went really high.

Sprinting out from the infield, Phillips tried his best to get his fingertips on the ball but it was a tad too far, even for him. Nevertheless, the slow-motion replays of the effort soon gained traction online as users marvelled at the flight the Kiwi cricketer took in trying to make ground. You can watch the video and a still of the sensational attempt below.
Earlier, GT rode fifties from opener Jos Buttler, captain Shubman Gill and all-rounder Washington Sundar to post a 210-run total in Delhi.
Capitals' skipper Axar Patel had won the toss and elected to bowl first, stating that his team had chased well and wanted to continue in the same vein. DC went in with the same playing XI as their previous game against Mumbai Indians, which the Delhi-based franchise had won by six wickets.
Patel's opposite number Shubman Gill, meanwhile returned to the Titans' side after missing their last match with a muscle spasm in his neck. Gill replaced Kumar Kushagra in GT's only change.
