2019 Cricket ODI WC

[Crucial]

Saffas 2 down, 1 retired hurt and very lucky on a shelled catch.

Will the England bowling depth hold out though? Already Ali is going for nearly 7s

[Crucial]

Saffas getting reamed here.

Pretty awesome catch from Stokes along the way.

[sparky]

South Africa 207 all out

England win by 104 runs

Highlight: Stokes with one of the greatest catches in the history of Cricket.

Skynet let the link show then vanish ? whaaaaat ? it's obviously telling me to stop procrastinating and do some paperwork,

It was a bloody good catch, but hardly the greatest ever. That is just Nasser Hussain talking shit from a nervous English commentary box

It was weird technique, despite batting left handed he obviously doesn't rate his ability to catch left handed. Great grab though.

John Dyson catch with extra camera angles

@MN5

The Stokes catch is a lot better than that one because of the faster velocity the ball is travelling off Phehlukwayo's bat.

[sparky]

@NTA If an Aussie had caught that you would be calling it one of the great catches of all time.

Well yeah but I took into account professional cricketer at his peak vs League has been.

Fatty wins that battle of the rangas.

[taniwharugby]

why cant it just be one of the greatest catches?

Looks awesome, but have been others that look equally awesome?

[Donsteppa]

It has to be called the greatest catch of all time, because it's Orrrijin time, and that's the most contagious sporting event ever - even half a world away and in a different sport. Maaaaate.

[Siam]

Poms world cup to lose😉

Although given how exceptional they've been at one day cricket at home for the last 2 years they must be odds on, despite the potential of India and an always competitive Australia.

Good performance from England

Stokes' effort would struggle to crack the top 5 of just Australian catches.

The fact he made it look a lot more difficult that it was by going off-handed is by the by.
