As English wicketkeeper Amy Jones clobbered a six over mid-wicket, a patron in the crowd pulled off an all-time beauty.

With a can of beer in one hand, the patron threw his right hand out to catch the ball before juggling it a couple of times to hold the catch.

A double fist pump and some hugs from mates before hopping onto the phone to presumably let everyone know he just took an absolute beauty in the crowd.

Outside of the fact he took a one-handed screamer, the man did not spill a single drop of beer!

“That’s the greatest crowd catch I’ve ever seen,” Lachlan Jeffrey posted on X.

“Commitment 10/10,” journalist Max Hatzoglou said.

“What a catch!” another user wrote.

A man has pulled off one of the best crowd catches ever.

Australia has been set a 205-run target for victory in the women’s Ashes series opener after England was bowled out in front of a sellout crowd at North Sydney Oval.

After captain Alyssa Healy won the toss and chose to bowl first at the picturesque venue, England was rolled for 204 in 43.1 overs with spinner Ash Gardner taking 3-19.

All-rounder Annabel Sutherland and leg-spinner Alana King snared two wickets each to stall England’s middle order while seamer Kim Garth finished with 2-46 after a probing opening spell.

England’s innings got off to a dramatic start when opener Maia Bouchier chopped back onto her stumps in the first over, only to be saved by Megan Schutt’s front-foot no ball. However, Bouchier couldn’t make the most of the reprieve, edging an outswinger from Garth through to wicketkeeper Healy for 9 a few minutes later.
Captain Heather Knight and opener Tammy Beaumont added 50 for the second wicket before the latter spooned towards Garth at mid-on for 13 to become Sutherland’s first victim of the day.

The introduction of Gardner brought about immediate success for the Australians, with the tweaker removing Knight and all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt in almost identical fashion, top-edging an ill-judged sweep shot to Ellyse Perry at deep mid-wicket.

Batter Danielle Wyatt-Hodge (38 from 52 balls) and wicketkeeper Amy Jones (31 from 30 balls) added some handy runs in the middle overs before Australia ripped through the tail in a clinical performance.
