we had an amazing cricket catch in the big bash league down in australia and this one's brought to you by rome and you go to URL_TOKEN johnboy now to speak to a u.s licensed healthcare professional and you can get NUMBER_TOKEN off your first month here's some context if you don't know the rules of cricket that boundary is very important why did that guy dive this isn't the play we're talking about but he goes all out to save that ball from even hitting the boundary because that's an automatic four runs if it goes over there on the bounce or the roll or if it hits the boundary at all great play by him to save it now if it goes over the boundary well that's an automatic six runs and this ball is rocketed over the boundary and then all of the sudden grabbed and then just stands up like he knows exactly what he did points out his fans points out his fans rockstar hands up the ball gets tossed and it's just as cool as the catch one hand up high stepping into his teammates knows what he did is amazing so celebrating it we have fans in the stands doing the opposite of victory surrender like victory amazement and look at that grab full extension i mean my oblique would be shattered so easily grabs it bare-handed hard ball as high up as you can get not only saves the six and saves the four but catches it so takes the wicket meaning gets the batter out which is rare and like a big swing in the game just a crazy catch and a couple overs later he makes this play to save the four which i find not just as impressive obviously but it's a nice play there was no replays of it but i mean that is fully reaching back to save it now they probably get two runs here so he only saves two because he keeps it in play but it's still a nice play and they needed it they didn't score that many runs in their inning so they needed as good as defense as they could and it all mattered because in the end there's three balls left this version of cricket has a pitch limit so to speak and you have to score as many runs as you can off that amount of pitches so they only have three left and they need to score nine runs so it kind of came down to the wire and this is where qriket gets exciting that one gets put in play but it's not a boundary it's not a six so they gotta run it out so they run back and forth twice that gets them two runs so now seven runs off of two balls so at this point you know that the batsman is swinging big and you know that he has to deliver the ball in like his hitting range otherwise the umpire will say no that was too wide and he has to do it over and the batting team gets a point so that one's put in play again not a boundary not a boundary not a boundary so it's just going to be two more runs because they ran back and forth and now it comes down to the last wall this could be what we call a walk-off in baseball because if he hits a six over the boundary it's six runs they need five to win so he's gonna be swinging big and i guess all my cricket fans i think this is the game within the game correct me if i'm wrong you can
