With each passing year, the standard of cricket has risen in the Indian Premier League.

The scores have gotten bigger and the bowling has been of the highest standards.

But it is the fielding that has been top drawer, especially this season.

Be it the ground fielding in the 'V', the dives at the boundary or the stunning catches that have fielders flying and leaping, turning cricketers into Supermen.

Norma Astrid Godinho picks the best fielding efforts she has liked in IPL 2020 so far.
