Twitter goes gaga over Sheldon Cottrell's world class catch to dismiss Steve Smith
Not more than a week ago, Ben Stokes took a world class catch which stunned everyone. Today, Sheldon Cottrell took a catch which rivalled Stokes' efforts and everyone in the stadium was captivated by it and the Twitterati were in the same boat as they showered Cottrell with praise.
He can have as many salutes as he wants for that catch!
Stunning. Just stunning, that catch from Cottrell. Deserves two salutes!

For me, it was!
Was that catch by Sheldon Cottrell better than the catch by @benstokes38 ? @cricketworldcup #AUSvsWI

Sharing the award you say?
If Ben Stokes and Cottrell compete each other for the best catch of the tournament, Both will be awarded as winner.

Lasted only a week! Sigh! Better luck next time Stokes!
Sheldon Cottrell you beauty... Ben Stoke’s hold over “greatest catch ever” lasted less than a week. #CWC19 #AusvWI

Debatable?
That Cottrell catch still wasn't as good as Collingwood in 04, better than stokesy though.

Maybe this is what West Indies needed all this while!
Cottrell could well be the X-factor #WI needs right now..! Not a hero but a silent Guardian #WIvsAUS #AUSvsWI #WorldCup2019

Would be gutted if the Windies don't win this!
West Indies should win this game on a common canter. NO TEAM who benefits from a catch LIKE THAT dares to tell Cottrell that it couldn't chase down however many runs the other side makes

Salty fans!
Cottrell catch was better than Stokes

But English fans won’t agree
😂 #AUSvWI
Easily!
