In the BBL Qualifier 1, Sydney Sixers’ Jack Edwards produced what many are calling the best catch in cricket history. The catch occurred during the Hobart Hurricanes’ innings when Matthew Wade attempted a late cut shot, aiming for a boundary.

Edwards, showcasing his exceptional athleticism, dived to his right and took a one-handed catch, preventing the ball from reaching the boundary. This remarkable fielding effort came after the Hurricanes had started strong, with Mitchell Owen blasting a quickfire 36 off 15 balls.

Despite Owen’s early fireworks, the Hurricanes lost momentum as they lost quick wickets, including that of Owen, slowing the run rate. Edwards’ brilliance on the field shifted the tide in favor of the Sixers, giving them a much-needed boost.

The Hurricanes still have big hitters like Tim David, Ben McDermott, and Caleb Jewell, who were at the crease, aiming to put up a strong total. The BBL clash between the Sixers and Hurricanes witnessed a spectacular fielding moment that will likely be remembered for years to come.
