Sharjah: Fans will not be able to watch this catch without holding their heads. The cricket world was stunned by the catch during the Pakistan-New Zealand (PAK vs NZ) match at the T20 World Cup 2021. Mohammad Hafeez of Pakistan was knocked back by Devon Conway in a full-length diving on the boundary line.

Hafeez’s plan was to bowl Mitchell Santner to the boundary in the last ball of the 11th over of the New Zealand innings. But Conway jumped to his left and made the ball adventurous. Hafeez hit 11 off six balls, including a boundary. It was one of the best catches in the tournament.
