This has been a really good thread.
Must surely be because of my general ignorance about cricket; there are a fair number of catches here that I hadn't seen earlier.

you know its good when the cameraman just assumes its gone to the boundary. rampers pulled off some absolute gems in his time

For sheer athleticism, this should definitely be one of the best outfield catches....

Can we have a "Best Grassed Catches" category? OS has plenty of videos of Australians at it.

Meh, bump balls are bad but nothing as bad as literally picking the ball up off the ground like "hard but fair muh baggy green culture" Steve Waugh or Greg Dyer. Give up Burgey. You can talk about the handful of incidents by Indian players all you want. Aussies are ****ing disgusting cheats on a whole another level.
