Cape Town: Australia faced defeat in the third ODI against South Africa. The Aussies lost the match by 111 runs at Senwes Park, Potchefstroom. After losing the toss and batting, South Africa scored 338 runs for the loss of six wickets in the stipulated over. Aidan Markram’s century (102) led South Africa to a huge score. In reply, the Aussies were all out for 227 in 34.3 overs.
Despite the loss, the catch taken by the Aussie star Sean Abbott became a huge discussion on social media. The catch that dismissed Marco Jansen (32) went viral on social media. A wide yorker by Aussie pacer Nathan Ellis was played to the offside by Jansen. It is certain that the ball will hit the boundary. But Abbott, running from sweeper cover, tucked the ball away with one hand. Fans hail it as one of the best catches in cricket history. Watch the video…
One of the Greatest catches ever in cricket history. 🔥
