'From a different planet': 'Outrageous' catch leaves cricket world stunned
Chris Jordan has pulled off one of the best catches in BBL history after a stunning effort in the deep to help the Perth Scorchers claim victory.
The Perth Scorchers made a whopping 7-197 as they cruised thanks to big scores from Mitchell Marsh and Cameron Bancroft.

But it was Jordan’s insane catch in the deep that had fans out of their seats.
Fawad Ahmed was bowling to Dan Christian when the big hitter tried to clear the ropes.
The hard and flat hit was soaring down to long-on but a rampaging Jordan covered immense ground.
He then dived to his right and took an absolute screamer at full strength to send the crowd into a frenzy.
