Hey guys,

I took 2 great catches today, one blinder and another good one. I'm wondering what the best catch is that you've ever taken???

My first today was when the batsman leading edged it over my head, and I had to run back 20 metres and take the catch over my shoulder.

My second was at square cover, a short ball was bowled, and the batsman smashed it over my head, and I jumped up and caught it one-handed with my left paw. BLINDER!

Any good catches you've taken, would be interested to know...!

U9 cricket playing for u11 county side, backward point cuts it hard sprint to my left, then dive and somehow luckily grab it and get a standing from the parents watching. Will always stick with me

standing at wide mid-off, running diving catch off a top edged pull to wide mid-on, about 25 yards of running, quality catch! also taken a couple of good ones running in the deep, couple of good'uns at backward point as well. considering i used to be a right panesar in the field i've improved tenfold!

God! This is gunna be some serious brain draining thinking!

One that I can remember from this season. Fielding at say 2/3 slip for my mate how can bowl 80+. But wasn't this day. The guy edged it and i dived to my left and caught it with both hands. With a little roll! It was one of those catches that goes in so well, even though it was travelling i didn't feel it at all!

nd one from our 6 a side, fielding at mid off. The guy absolutely drilled it to my left at shoulder height. I got my hands up and had to dive for it. I caught it, my elbows hit the floor and i fumbled it but managed to catch it again!

Nahh at home. But still! Were tge bikini clad girls impressed?

[Colesy]

On the boundary stretching one-handed to stop a six and I actually caught it!

[johan95]

Chatting up some bikini clad girls eh. I bet your a stud at 14/15!

Also adding in that your were playing for county under 11's when you were under 9's

It little bits like this that annoys the genuine members, some little cocky kid.
