During the first innings of the 41st match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC) at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, DC skipper Rishabh Pant and KKR wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik experienced a  dangerous moment.

Varun Chakravarthy entered the game in the 17th over to bowl his final over. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant attempted to smash the opening delivery of that over, but he missed his stroke and the ball fell close to the stumps. So Rishabh Pant sought to hit it away with his bat, almost hitting Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik, who was in the process of catching the ball.
