Australia’s Steve Smith took a stunning catch to avenge his earlier dismissal in ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 clash against New Zealand at Lord’s on Saturday.
In the 36th over of the second innings, Smith dived at full stretch to dismiss New Zealand’s Tom Latham – a stunning feat of athleticism off the bowling of Mitchell Starc.
STEVE SMITH THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS!
