The Hundred’s top catches!
FEATUREAs the old saying goes, “catches win matches” and that is no different in The Hundred. We have already seen some fantastic takes from bowlers catching off their own bowling to brilliant boundary edge action. We take a look at a few that stand out.
Kirstie Gordon - V Manchester Originals
Birmingham Phoenix’s Kirstie Gordon took a great diving catch to dismiss Georgie Boyce of Manchester Originals. Gordon played a key role in Phoenix’s victory that day, not only taking the catch but also registering three wickets to her name with the ball.

Adam Milne - V London Spirit
One of the hardest skills for a bowler is trying to field off their own bowling. But for Adam Milne, he made it look simple with a fantastic one-handed catch to take the wicket of London Spirit’s Ravi Bopara.

Tom Lammonby - V Oval Invincibles
Tom Lammonby’s low take against Oval Invincibles was a fantastic effort to remove Jason Roy from the crease. The fielder had to move at speed whilst watching the ball and make a perfect dive to make the catch and he did just that.

Sarah Taylor - V Southern Brave
There are few that are more experienced behind the stumps than Sarah Taylor. The keeper has been part of many of England’s biggest wins on the international stage. She has shown just why she is so good with the gloves with this fantastic leg-side take against the Southern Brave.

Phil Salt - V Birmingham Phoenix
There are few things more satisfying than a good boundary catch. A mixture of quick-thinking and quick body movement can be the difference between getting rid of a dangerous batter or seeing the ball soar for six. Here, Phil Salt has managed to deny a boundary and make the catch look simple come the end.
