SA20 | Twitter astonished by Junior Dala’s impeccable acrobatics on the boundary grabbing screamer
The athleticism on the cricket field can result in some jaw-dropping moments, especially if it is a spectacular catch pulled off to push the bar beyond imagination. Pretoria Capitals Junior Dala showcased his splendid reflexes on at the boundary line grabbing an impossible catch at Durban.
Pretoria Capitals openers Phil Salt and Will Jacks walked in with utmost determination to give the Capitals a solid start. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned, courtesy of a brilliant catch by South African youngster Junior Dala. In the first over bowled by Wiaan Mulder, Salt smacked the full-length delivery that swung away a bit as he got a thick edge to the deep backward point where Dala was positioned strategically. Dala leapt a bit for the grab and palmed it as he was close to the rope and managed to grab the screamer enthralling a packed Kingsmead. An astounded Pretoria side lauded the magnificent effort by Gala who is known for his splendid fielding.
The Twitterverse was dumbfounded by Dala’s catch and took to social media to laud the South African lad.
What a catch!

Using 100% of his brain
Junior Dala using 100% of his brain to take that catch. Jumed to palm the ball up which was flying for a six and then took the catch on the rebound inches inside the ropes. Poor luck, Phil Salt. #SA20
