Kyle Verreynne Goes Against Gravity To Dismiss Travis Head

Just before the Lunch break on Day one of the Lord's clash, South Africa wicketkeeper Kyle Verreynne took an acrobatic catch to dismiss the dangerous Australia batter Travis Head.

In the second ball of the 24th over, it wasn't one of the best deliveries from the Proteas bowling allrounder Marco Jansen, but Head took a flick. But all credit goes to the South African wicketkeeper who went against the gravity and grabbed the ball with his one hand. The ball was out of Verreynne's but his acrobatic dive made it possible.
