That's an awesome piece of fielding. It's great fielding when players take the catch then realise they'll fall over the boundary so they throw it in to another fielder, this is on another level.

That was good but there was a better one than that where a player threw the ball about 30m to a teamate after jumping over boundary rope

How popular would the second guy be if he dropped it after all the effort the first guy put in?

lol they mention that in the commentary.

The batsman must be thinking, like wtf, that was a six 9999/10000 and the bowler was thinking, well that saved my stats...

who knows what the fielder was thinking, that was just pure brilliance, and, well there aren't superlatives to cover that.

It's ok, Haddin fields at zeroth slip.:p

That catch was supreme brilliance. I fail to imagine a better one being possible.

Maybe if he took it in the air after jumping from inside the field of play and then teleported to just inside the rope to land?

I've seen it happen.

I was playing 1st Grade for Uni vs Beenleigh Logan in Brisbane and a bloke called Alan Rowe smacked one over a cow corner, deep midwicket ran around at full pace and caught it, took 2 steps, threw it over his shoulder to deep mid on before crashing over a picket fence, only for the bloke at long on to drop it cold. It went straight to him too.

The bloke that dropped it played plenty of first class cricket too, but I won't name him for fear of further reprisal!
