Rajasthan Royals batter Nitish Rana’s hilarious pose went viral as he took a juggling catch in the IPL 2025 game against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Chinnaswamy Stadium on Thursday. The pose lying down from the left-handed batter after taking the catch sparked meme fest among the netizens during the game.
It was the dismissal of Devdutt Padikkal as the left-handed batter looked to go over cover against Sandeep Sharmal; however, all he did was spooned to mid-off. It initially seemed like Rana had dropped a sitter due to the floodlights or misjudging the ball altogether but took the catch after around five juggles.

Here are some of the memes from the catch:
