All Time Classic Catches

Dwayne Bravo's amazing caught and bowled against Australia in 2005, that was incredible considering that he was in the middle of his follow through. He changed direction instantaneously and went airborne to his left and caught a blinder.

A montage of Shane Bond moments last night reminded me of a catch Jacob Oram made off him at gully against India in 2002 (?). It ballooned off the bat, Oram waited until it was past him and dropping and threw himself full length up and backwards, caught it, juggled it and caught it with his fingertips as he hit the grass. Few others in world cricket could have taken it, due to the height.

Mcgrath had to run 418 km's, dive full stretch (which is amazing for a lanky man such as McGrath), he took it in one hand (although the other hand was close by), land on his gut and hold the ball, it was amazing.
Eh? Isn't that a few marathons?

There needs to be a DVD or something... so many great catches.
Funnily enough, some of the best catches in recent times can be seen on Tuffers' Duffers. On a related note, some of the best drops in recent times can be seen on that amusing DVD.
And so much more...

Sinclair's catch was incredible. Hayden didn't just lob it high in the air. He smoked it right off the middle and it was going like a bullet towards the fence.

Yeah I remember this one now. The amount of reach off the ground was unbelievable. haha and it was Hayden yet again.
