As Iyer eventually perished after a well-made 77 in 87 balls, KL Rahul made way and struggled from the get-go. Languishing at 8 in 16 balls, the Indian gloveman attempted a slog towards the leg side against Marco Jansen. As the mistimed ball went high up in the air, van der Dussen charged in and completed an incredible sliding catch to dismiss Rahul.
