:bowdown:

When I watched the first one, I did think (in addition to "bloody hell, that's brilliant") that it was a shame he didn't flip it back to the fielder behind for the catch...

Then, lo and behold... :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

its getting to the point that even when the ball drifts beyond the boundary its not without risk,

going large was always risky but batsmen often breathed s sigh of relief once they were sure it would carry over the rope. Now you literally have to wait for it to hit the ground.

That is incredible.

Saving the 6 is one thing
Getting it to the back up fielder for a catch is incredible
But doing it by flicking the ball around your back whilst in mid-air.

****ing hell.

It reminds me of a 6 I once saved.

Sure I wasn't in mid air, I didn't lob the ball back for the catch, nor flick it behind before any part of me touched the ground.


Actually now I think about it, it doesn't remind me of anything I've done, plus I think I was actually playing badminton.
