In the final over, with South Africa needing 16 runs to win, <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/david-miller-321777">David Miller</a>, their most destructive batter, was on the crease. It was tense. And then there was the catch, the incredible grab by Suryakumar Yadav at the boundary, a moment that sealed India’s victory and their second T20 World Cup title, after 17 long years. </p><h3>Suryakumar Yadav on His Match-Winning Catch: “I Watch It Every Hour”</h3><p>In his words: How he feels about his game changing moment, Suryakumar Yadav opened up on.</p><blockquote><p>“I watch it every hour. I get a lot of chances to use my phone and I watch it a lot of times and I am very grateful.”</p></blockquote><p>This statement shows how much the significance of his catch is not only to him but to millions of Indian cricket fans who watched history being created.</p><p>Also See : <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/varanasi-fans-perform-aarti-and-pray-for-team-india-s-victory-in-champions-trophy-final/">Varanasi Fans Perform Aarti and Pray for Team India’s Victory in Champions Trophy Final</a></p><h3>The Game-Changing Catch</h3><p>The turning point moment occurred in the last over bowled by Hardik Pandya. David Miller, who has a reputation of winning games for his team, smashed a massive shot in the direction of long-off. For a brief moment, Indian hearts stopped beating. But then suddenly, Suryakumar Yadav judged the jump to perfection, caught the ball, and kept himself inside the boundary rope—giving India a dismissal that shattered the dreams of South Africa.</p><p>India went on to win the final seven runs, courtesy of exceptional death bowling by Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Pandya, but Suryakumar's catch was the standout moment that will be remembered.</p><h3>The Power of Fitness and Reflexes</h3><p>That one spectacular catch didn't come through luck-it was a product of intense fitness practice and quick reflexes. The speed, quickness, and accuracy of Suryakumar Yadav bespeak the superlative state of fitness which contemporary cricketers enjoy. From grueling exercise routines to specific field practice, players pump in lots of money into the fitness regimen just to achieve something like that on the field. </p><h3>Social Media Buzz and Fan Engagement</h3><p>In the digital age, sensational sporting moments don't remain on the pitch-they burst on the internet. Yadav's catch went viral the moment it happened, with millions of fans posting, debating, and rejoicing over it on social media. Such moments enable cricketers to establish their brand, grow fan base, and make the sport even more exciting for global viewers.</p><p>Also See : <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/varanasi-fans-perform-aarti-and-pray-for-team-india-s-victory-in-champions-trophy-final/">Varanasi Fans Perform Aarti and Pray for Team India’s Victory in Champions Trophy Final</a></p>]]></content:encoded> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Watch: Matt Henry rewinds the clock to recreate a Suryakumar-esque WC final catch]]></title> <link>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/matt-henry-rewinds-the-clock-to-recreate-a-suryakumar-esque-wc-final-catch/</link> <guid>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/matt-henry-rewinds-the-clock-to-recreate-a-suryakumar-esque-wc-final-catch/</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 11 Jan 2025 12:06:12 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[New Zealand's Matt Henry takes a blinder of a catch near the boundary to reignite the memories of Suryakumar Yadav's marvelous catch which led to India's subsequent victory in the 2024 T20 WC Final. ]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/01/Sri-Lanka-s-Charith-Asalanka-and-New-Zealand-s-Mitchell-Santner.webp" width="1280" height="720" alt="Watch: Matt Henry rewinds the clock to recreate a Suryakumar-esque WC final catch"/><p>During the third and final ODI match between Sri Lanka and New Zealand, New Zealand paceman Matt Henry pulls off a near-impossible catch at the long-off boundary to dismiss Charith Asalanka of Sri Lanka for a five-ball duck. While doing so, he also managed to recreate the stunning catch Suryakumar Yadav took to deliver India their second T20 World Cup title. </p><p><strong>See also:</strong></p><h3>Matt Henry's brilliance on the field lifts the Black Caps up</h3><p>The incident unfolded during the 30th over of the Lankan innings. Charith Asalanka was facing up to Doug Bracewell from round the wicket. While stilling batting on 0, Asalanka made up his mind to take the aggressive route. But as fate would have it, Asalanka did not succeed in his mission and subsequently holed out to Henry at long-on.</p><p>During the second ball of the 30th over, Asalanka used his feet to charge down the wicket. For a moment, it looked like he hit it cleanly. The ball was destined to go over the ropes but Henry had other ideas. Henry covered good ground to his right and completed the catch before releasing it up in the air. He briefly went over the ropes while the ball was airborne but got himself back on the field of play just in the nick of time to complete a brilliant catch thus recreating the Suryakumar-esque catch from the the T20 WC Final.</p><p><strong>See the video:</strong></p><p> </p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">🗣️"Matt Henry's taken a ripper!"<br><br>Outstanding work on the boundary from the Canterbury quick and the third Sri Lanka wicket falls LIVE and free in NZ on TVNZ DUKE and TVNZ+. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NZvSL?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#NZvSL</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CricketNation?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CricketNation</a> <a href="https://t.co/7elOufEY6H">pic.twitter.com/7elOufEY6H</a></p>— BLACKCAPS (@BLACKCAPS) <a href="https://twitter.com/BLACKCAPS/status/1877915389373432140?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 11, 2025</a></blockquote><p> </p><h3>Current state of the match</h3><p>Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, and Janith Liyanage notched up well-compiled fifties to drive Sri Lanka to a respectable total of 290.
