Axar Patel: No amount of praise for Axar Patel is enough. This player is a true 3D player. Give him bowling, bat or field, this player fits everywhere. In real terms, he is also a great replacement for Ravindra Jadeja. Today he also proved it. The 51st match of T20 World Cup 2024 was played between Australia and India in Antigua where Axar Patel surprised everyone with his dangerous fielding. If you watch this video of him, you will also say that this is the best catch in 180 years of cricket history.

Axar Patel took a dangerous catch

Actually, Kuldeep Yadav was bowling in the 8.6 over.

Australia's captain Mitchell Marsh was in front of him. His catch was taken by Axar Patel on the boundary. Before this, Marsh had got a lifeline twice but this time he could not survive. Marsh tried to fire Kuldeep's ball in the air.

The ball was going fast in the air and out of the boundary. Axar Patel showed smartness and let the ball come to him and then the ball stuck to his hand. This was one of the best catches in the 180 years of cricket history. Let us tell you that Mitchell Marsh scored 37 runs in 28 balls and during this he also hit 3 fours and 2 sixes.
