AMERICAN REACTS to TOP 10 CRICKET CATCHES IN HISTORY!!

[@CricInd-es2pn]

Dude, cricket grounds are one of the biggest or the biggest sports grounds ever to exist so imagine how much grounds fielders have to cover to catch a high catch.

[@robertferraro236]

The ones that are caught in the slips (behind the batter) are often travelling at between 85 and 100 mph. So it is like catching a pitcher's fast ball with one's bare hands. When you learn how to catch properly it doesn't hurt at all. It's all about having your hands cupped right and the ball just enters and hits right.

[@AverageAussieBloke-r1z]

And "accepting" the ball.

[@dreamersparadise919]

@@robertferraro236 Yes "receiving" the ball gently, either fingers pointing skywards (Aussie style) or fingers pointing down (English style).

[@Philby17]

Agreed

[@dreamersparadise919]

Yeah if it goes high up, the fielder gets more time... But you must remember that the ball is swinging in the air, and it is a white ball against a white sky.

[@Chaddington98]

Good point. I feel like I’ve seen them use red balls too right?

[@dreamersparadise919]

@@Chaddington98 Yes red balls are used in day test matches, and players generally don't hit the ball in air during tests a lot. The main point there is to survive, rather than score runs. So high catches in test matches are pretty rare.

Hey there Chaddington, how are you? Can you react to this cricket video called Shane Warne-King Of Spin Leg Tutorial, KZbin Video By KZbinr Fizzing Leg Breaks Leg Tutorial. Chaddington man, you're gonna be amazed by this video, it's about the legendary cricket bowler named Shane Warne explaining the 5 types of cricket pitches or cricket ball bowling moves, In terms of the grips around the ball, the way and how the ball is thrown and so on. Trust me, you got to give this video a try, dont take my word for it and I will let you be the judge for this video. Let me know what ya think of the video.

@@Chaddington98 White balls are used in limited overs matches because of the coloured clothing. Normal games we use the traditional red balls and now in some games pink balls.

[@leighreganarblaster9852]

[@rocketrabble6737]

A lot of cricketers would tell you that many of the hardest catches are close catches behind the stumps by the 'slip' fielders. They require terrific concentration (you may have to wait hours for one) and you require tremendous reflexes to catch these 'bullets', and coordination to be consistent. These guys are real specialists, on the cricket field.

[@Chaddington98]

That's cool :) thanks

[@dannyirving6709]

As an Aussie, I don't understand why you Americans feel the need for a glove to catch a ball. 😂

[@dannyirving6709]

@Chaddington98 sounds about right.

[@flamingfrancis]

If you study your history of cricket you will learn that baseball has not always worn gloves. The ball deliveries were also both underarm for a long time. Remember that the baseball glove is worn on the non dominant hand.

[@johnwatters6922]

If you have ever played both games it's obvious, in baseball the ball is frequently thrown amongst the players at full speed. In cricket only one player catches the ball at full speed in every play, the wicket keeper, who is also the only player who wears gloves.

[@martinwhite3559]

Shane Warnes' top 10 wickets and Glen Maxwell 201 at the 2023 cricket world cup are great ones. Glen Maxwell 201 is the craziest thing ever and not just sport but in the history of anything. Watching it live on TV was just insane.

[@Prsboy78]

A lot of people don't realise how much harder and heavier a cricket ball is than a baseball. So i generally recommended purchasing a cricket ball and holding it while watching these videos, it gives you a much better understanding of the game. 🏏

[@flamingfrancis]

Absolute rubbish...look up the manufacturing specifications of both balls, then come back and state one is MUCH harder or heavier. Cricket balls are also used for up to 90 overs where they soften. Game baseballs are renewed very regularly in MLB games and don't get a chance to soften. The seam is also twice the length and stitching is more prone than central seam of cricket ball.

[@mikeythehat6693]

Getting caught by the bowler is a highly admired play, we call it "caught and bowled" (for obvious reasons) (I dunno why it isn't "bowled and caught" instead, but, there you have it). Being "caught and bowled" is particularly embarrassing for the Batsman because.....well, he's right there, right in front of you.

[@rocketrabble6737]

There's a problem with #1. You don't actually get to see the second fielder who catches it after it is thrown back in.

[@luxpursuits]

Catches 1 and 2 are similar: 1. Angelo running faster didn't have time to do a Boult so he threw it to Dilshan who was still a bit far away from him 2. Boult threw it in the air before going over the rope, then caught it himself

[@clymtc]

yes, you made sense of the last catch as it was not very clear in the video. Glad that you are enjoying the cricket :)

[@robertferraro236]

Yep, cricket balls hurt. As a junior (About 14 or 15), I was playing a match for my village. Ball way hit into the air and another fielder, a friend of mine, shouted, "Mine!" I thought, 'No, it's nearer to me.' Trouble is, I only thought it so when I went for the ball, I walked into the back of my friend, my hands were knocked out of the way and I caught the ball with my eye! Got a trip to A&E and looked like I'd been hit by Mike Tyson for about a week.

[@solreaver83]

Harder then baseballs but you play cricket from an early age and you learn how to catch with soft hands. Once it becomes a reflex it's not very hard in the hand, do it wrong though and you will break bones

[@davejones7632]

Indeed. I mostly fielded at first slip. For the uninitiated, that is the position behind the batsman, to the immediate side of the wicket keeper (who does wear gloves). You are waiting for a batsman to 'edge' the ball. From a fast bowler that is going at some rate, and you are not that far away. Reflexes are everything in that position. Fielding in the outfield, waiting an eternity for a ball to come down, was not my idea of fun! :)

The most difficult part of these catches in the deep is not so much the catch itself but judging exactly where you need to be to make the catch. If you suddenly realise it's going over your head or falling short you're not going to catch it.

[@iankearns774]

I got hit in the face once fielding at deep mid wicket, I was facing the sun but thought I had made good position to catch it, I was just off a bit and the ball went through my fingers and in to my face giving me a blackeye and left the seam mark on my cheek.

With the last catch he could have just thrown it on the ground and as long as he did so before treading on or over the boundary rope the only runs scored would be how many the batsmen were able to run, which would probably have been two runs, instead of the six runs if the ball had cleared the boundary.

When you catch a cricket ball you allow it to arrive and take back your hand to soften the arrival of the ball.

It's called a boundary not the edge of the field or out of bounds. The rope or triangles now is the boundary line. A catch most be court on the full which is why most players use the cup or reverse cup technique when catching

[@xaj1543]

They deliberately hit the ball to all parts of the ground depending on the delivery, the shot you said wasn’t a good hit was called a cut shot, which means the ball was probably on a shorter length and outside the line of his off stump.

[@stevehartley7504]

If foot grounded it's 6 If he throws it infield it's what the batters can run or throw to another fielder

[@ahdoodeclair]

To make a fair catch, you must catch the ball before it touches the ground and then have control of the ball. If you catch a ball close to the boundary and step over the boundary rope with the ball in hand, the batter gets six runs and is not out. If after catching the ball you throw it infield before you step on the ground over the line and then return and catch the ball again or another fielder catches the ball you have thrown, it is a fair catch and the batter is out. There was a good example of a fielder throwing it to himself and one where he threw it to a teammate in that collection.

[@Chaddington98]

Thank you!

[@O....0_in]

Yeah, a cricket ball's definitely heavier than a baseball. A baseball usually weighs between 5 and 5.25 ounces. Cricket balls are a bit beefier, coming in between 5.5 and 5.75 ounces.

[@flamingfrancis]

The difference in manufacturer's specifications means the cricket ball would have 5-10% more force when travelling at the same speed. So which one would you prefer to be standing in front of if both are coming at you at say, 60MPH if you can't stop it.? Cricket balls go soft during the time they are in the game whereas baseballs are being renewed very regularly and an average of 20-30 can be used in any MLB game. The stitched seam on a baseball is also twice the length of a cricket ball making it more prone to cause cutting injuries. Now you have some balance to your comment.

[@O....0_in]

@flamingfrancis hope you know in cricket player doesn't wear any gloves 🧤 accept wicket keeper and batsman.

[@NickJewlachow-of3yh]

Credit for the inclusion of some catches dating back to the late 90s. The athleticism of cricket in the field has improved out of sight since the 80s when the West Indies were light years ahead of all competitors As a comparison, I recommend digging up John Dyson’s grab to get rid of Sylvester Clarke off the late Bruce Yardley.

Yes, cricket balls hurt. First time I tried the game as a little kid, I tried to stop a ball rolling along the ground like my big cousins had taught me (knee down to make a backstop in case you miss, start with a nice big "net", eye on the ball, eye on the ball, eye on the ball ) but it was a bumpy ground, and the ball hit a bump just as it got near me, took off, hit me somewhere in the head or face. Gave up cricket after that, till forced to play it as a teen. (It's not a game for someone with two left hands, and ten thumbs.)

These catches are subjective and no doubt there have been better over the years. The best catches are those that where the fielder has little time to react. Obviously, the catches where the fielder close to the boundary, release the ball before going over the boundary and regathers the ball in the field of play.

We have a saying Catches win matches We had 2 feilders taken to hospital other night Very similar to the one where thet almost hit each other These guys did head to head knocked each other out one broke he's nose It rare but does happen from time to time Weve had broken leg from from same type of catching Normally feilders not so close to each other and general rule is you call if going for the catch and another player near That way they pull out and normally its the person who has the straight run at ball goes for catch if closer or same distance Its why you have to be aware of your surroundings and other players As Aussie's playing sport its not a expectation to throw yourself at the ball But a requirement if you want to play any of our sports You do it for your team supporters and country and very bad if you don't The likelihood of playing again is slime to buckles If you manage to get another game the opponent's will continue to test your integrity Especially in contact sports here Best catches that open to interpretation of the individual's What one thinks best another won't Some think slip catches are better or wicket keeper's in close fielders There all have outstanding catches in their own rights So don't believe these are the best but outstanding catches Some earlier games had outstanding catches as well But you'll never see them because footage is in poor quality now Every season there's outstanding catches just as bowling and bats man Its a fluid part of all games for every changing and this is just what someone put together Been as good if not better this year but not on this list So i like to look at them as outstanding catches not the run of the mill but best thats up for interpretation Im not having ago at you or even the person made the real just trying to keep things in perspective Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍

Honestly, these are 10 great catches, but no better than 100s of other catches you will see. By the way, on catch number 1, he caught the ball while on the field and then threw it to a team mate on the field (who caught it) before he ran over the boundary line.

[@timrozitis961]

I don't think #2 is a legal catch under current rules (not sure how old it is, so they might have changed the rules since then). Might be wrong, but I think the current rule requires that if you go outside the boundary, you have to touch the ground inside the boundary before making contact with the ball again (or similar). So while i's still a great catch, he needs to be back inside the field of play (and have some part of his body touch the ground) before he can complete the catch legally.

[@tugvow3025]

I wouldn't call number 2 to actually be legal a catch. Didn't reestablish contract in the field prior to catching the ball the second time. Would be like stepping out of the field as the ball comes in and leaping forward back into the field while catching the ball in mid air, should be a six.

@Chaddington98 I was once out all Friday night. I had one hour sleep and arrived at the ground 13 minutes before the start of play. My team won the toss and chose to bat even though one opening batsman wasn't there. I had to rush to get ready although I was more keen on telling everybody about my night even though there wasn't enough time. I continued my story to the other opening batsman. My team batted very poorly, including me. My team mates got out while I batted poorly without getting out. I batted for three and a half hours while all my team mates got out. So, I spent three and a half hours telling one team mate at a time and the entire other team and the umoires about getting picked up and taken home by two women. I had more sexual partners than hours sleep. I am legendary at my club for that day because apparently batsmen usually talk about cricket while batting and not their sexual exploits.
