Watch: Sussex Star Takes 'One Of The Best Catches' During T20 Blast Match

Sussex's Brad Currie has taken internet by storm after he took one of best catches of all time during his side T20 Blast fixture against Hampshire Hawks at The Hove on Friday. The incident happened in the penultimate over of Hampshire's chase. With 23 runs required from 11 balls, Hampshire's Benny Howell tried to pull Tymal Mills for a six over midwicket. However, Currie had other ideas as he came flying in from deep square to pluck the ball mid-air. His attempt left everyone, including the commentator, in absolute disbelief.

India wicketkeeper batter Dinesh Karthik described Currie's effort as "one of the greatest catches ever."

"Has to be one of the greatest catches ever. The distance he covers before diving ..phewwwww."

While England captain Ben Stokes replied with a "filth" remark.

Oli Carter and Currie were the heroes as Sussex Sharks upset Hampshire Hawks at Hove to claim only their third win in this season's T20 Blast.

Carter smashed 64 off just 33 balls in only his sixth game in the format, making the most of his chance at No.3 to hit six fours and four sixes.

Currie, the 24-year-old left-arm pacer, did the damage early on in the innings as he took three wickets to reduced Hampshire to 24/4 at one stage.

He was adjudged 'Man of the Match' for his efforts.

156.7 Kmph Sensation Awaits India Debut, Bangladesh Start Life After Shakib

Pace sensation Mayank Yadav is expected to unleash his raw speed while the absence of India's T20 regulars will provide another opportunity to the fringe players in the three-match series against Bangladesh, beginning here Sunday. Having consistently generated speed in excess of 150kmph in his maiden IPL earlier this year, Mayank had drawn the attention of the cricketing world before a side strain ruled him out of the tournament. Usually, one has to prove fitness in domestic cricket to be considered for national selection but the 22-year-old has been fast-tracked into the side considering his special talent. The series against Bangladesh will be a test of his fitness and temperament. It is yet to be figured if he can display the same accuracy and control that he exhibited in the IPL. Besides Mayank, fellow Delhi pacer Harshit Rana and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy could also make their India debut over the course of the series. Nitish was picked for the Zimbabwe tour post the T...

PCB Not Happy With Pak Star Over Social Media Post On Babar Snub: Report

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is not pleased that Fakhar Zaman questioned the selection panel's decision to sideline Babar Azam from the Test side. The panel dropped former captain Babar Azam when they announced the squad for the remaining two Tests against England in Multan and Rawalpindi. Zaman took to X to question the decision, inviting the ire of the PCB. "The top board officials are not pleased with the tweet sent out by Fakhar and relevant persons are having a word with him about it," a well-informed PCB source said. "It's concerning to hear suggestions about dropping Babar Azam. India didn't bench Virat Kohli during his rough stretch between 2020 and 2023, when he averaged 19.33, 28.21, and 26.50, respectively. "If we are considering sidelining our premier batsman, arguably the best Pakistan has ever produced, it could send a deeply negative message across the team. There is still time to avoid pressing the panic button; we should focus on sa...
