KingsXI Punjab may have lost Sunday’s IPL match to Rajasthan Royals, but the losing team’s player Nicholas Pooran continues to be a social media sensation even a day later.

A jaw-dropping fielding that the West Indian player caught on the boundary line will go down in cricketing history as one of the greatest pieces of fielding of all times.

Nicholas jumped upwards to a considerable height to catch the ball in air and then threw it inside the fence as he fell outside.

Cricket legend Sachin Tandulkar tweeted: “This is the best save I have seen in my life. Simply incredible!!”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
