T20 World Cup 2021 | Twitter reacts as Chris Woakes plucks a stunning one-handed catch to send back Steve Smith
After dismissing David Warner early, Chris Woakes produced a brilliant catch at mid-on to send back Steve Smith in the T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12s clash in Dubai on Saturday. Smith mistimed a pull towards mid-on, and Woakes ran back a few yards and leaped to snaffle a one-handed grab.
After putting Australia in to bat in their third match of the T20 World Cup 2021, England enjoyed a fine start as David Warner, Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell were dismissed by the fourth over of the innings.
The second of those was brought about by a stunning catch from Chris Woakes. Steve Smith went for a pull off Chris Jordan on the first ball of the third over, and got it off the toe-end as the ball ballooned up towards mid-on. Woakes ran a few steps behind, and put his right hand up to complete a fine grab to send back Australia’s No.3 for 1.
In his previous over, Woakes had Warner caught behind for 1, before returning in the fourth to trap Glenn Maxwell leg-before for 6. Australia were 19/3 from five overs at the time of writing.
Both teams registered wins in their first two matches at the Super 12s stage, with England currently leading the Group 1 points table on virtue of a superior net run-rate (NRR) of +3.614.
One handed stunner!😍

One of the best so far!
Chris Woakes takes stunning catch to dismiss Steve Smith. Woakes had conceded just one run in his first over and claimed one wicket. It’s Woakes everywhere. #ENGvAUS #T20WorldCup21 pic.twitter.com/wHb6hBJlBB
