BRISBANE: Brisbane Heat’s Micahel Neser left everyone awestruck when he made an extraordinary fielding effort to take a juggling catch at the boundary.Â
In a BigBash League match between Brisbane Heat and Sydney Sixers on Monday, Nesser took a stunning catch to dismiss Jordan Silk, that too at the crucial stage of the game.
On the second ball of the 19th over, Silk hit fast bowler Mark Steketee over extra cover, where Neser was patrolling the boundary. He took a running catch and tried to flick the ball back as he was going over the fence. He chipped it again and jumped to the other side of the rope to complete the catch.
When the catch was reviewed by the TV umpire, it was clear from the replay that the player had his feet up in the air when he flicked the ball while standing outside the ropes.
This is fascinating.
