Agility and athleticism are crucial in cricket, often leading to game-changing moments. This was evident in the Women’s Hundred clash between London Spirit and Manchester Originals, where Sarah Glenn showcased her exceptional agility by pulling off a stunning one-handed catch scalping Evelyn Jones.

‌As the competition heats up in the Women's Hundred, with teams battling for points on the leaderboard, London Spirit's skipper Heather Knight won the toss and chose to bowl first. The Manchester Originals got off to a shaky start as Laura Wolvaardt was dismissed by Charlie Dean on the 15th ball. However, Beth Mooney and Emma Lamb managed to steady the innings taking the score to 25/1 by the fifth set. Mooney's innings was short-lived as she fell on 28, and things took a turn for the worse for the Originals when Evelyn Jones was sent packing, courtesy of a spectacular catch by Sarah Glenn.

On the 32nd delivery, Glenn came around the wicket and delivered a full-length ball to the Warwickshire batter. The ball was pitched outside the off stump as Jones attempted a drive. But she was beaten in the air and failed to reach the pitch of the ball. She stretched out in front only to nick it straight to Glenn. Displaying remarkable agility, the English leg-spinner quickly stooped to her right and with a one-handed grab, secured the catch. The Twitterverse, along with the London Spirit supporters, were captivated by Glenn's brilliance, sending social media into a frenzy.
