  1. I got the catch of the century at my school

  2. Have u heard of ravindra jadeja

  3. If that's catch of the century then i'm Jontey Rhodes

  4. As McGrath was a pure bowler only so I think his catch was better

  5. Ghanta e to sasta jadeja hai sirf….

  6. Frankly there was one English player I think he took the catch of the century against india in odi can’t remember his name

  7. Catch of the century no, the clickbait worked though.

  8. McGrath’s clearly a better catch

  9. Not at all catch of the century..Ben Stokes rules in that department

  10. Yes according to australian standard of fielding, this is the catch of century.

  11. Jadeja's catch vs nzl
    Kaif's diving catch vs pakistan 2004

  12. If it is catch of century by them then R.Jadeja is best fielder of the centuryπŸ€”.
    What do you think??

  13. Jadeja be like joke of the century

  14. Worst catch of the century he meant

  15. Catch of the century?? Maybe for an Australian player, don't generalise it idiots. If an Australian bowls a good delivery then it's a ball of the century, if an Australian takes a good catch the it's a catch of the century, what nonsense is this!!! But, don't remember having heard that Australia's defeat in the recent Border-Gavaskar trophy as the greatest defeat of the century

  16. Catch of the century? How!! It could be drop of the century if it was not taken

  17. put everything aside and talk Glenn Phillips stunner against the Aussie in the T20 world cup 2022. Phew.. what a catch that was.

  18. Nope boy… Philips take catch of century

  19. We are very lose with using words like "ball of the century" "catch of the century"

  20. It might not be the catch of the year

  21. No one :
    Literally no one :
    Cricket Australia : its a miracle !! Its a miracle !!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  22. If this is catch of the century then what about the half a million stunners that AB de Villiers has taken?

  23. There should be limit of boasting and praising…

    Cricket Australia and England both of them do not leave a single opportunity to praise themselves and their player for any small things…

    Moreover look at the title of video…2022-2023…..and whose catch he has taken…G Smith…🀣

    Catch of the century…??? Seriously????

  24. CA and ECB so desperate to project their players' feats as the best of the century/world/galaxy/universe 😴

  25. It isn't even catch of the decade imo.

  26. Ohh ho!! Then Jaddu's Catch in NZ will be the "Catch of the Cricket"! 😏

  27. Catch of the century πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†
    Nice joke
    High on drugs

  28. He's still a terrific all round cricketer. If you ask him he'll tell you he also could have opened the batting for Australia, and opened the bowling, and captained. Great guy.

  29. I thought graeme smith came back to cricket again

  30. It could be a catch? But truly a century? Good advertisement stint cricket Australia

  31. Nothing close to other great catches! Over estimation has a limit!

  32. Not even in top 10 catches since 2010

  33. Australian cricket web site itself declared catch of the century… Lol… It's just a normal catch with too much stunt job (in which Australian r very much expert)

  34. Steyns catch vs pakistan in 2015 wc was defo better.
