WATCH: ‘Superman’ Shadab Khan’s flying catch
Shadab Khan, the Pakistan vice captain for T20I and ODI cricket, has mesmerized his fans by catching the ball mid-air.
On Wednesday, the first ODI of a three-match series against the West Indies was played in Multan after almost 14 years.
When Hammad Nawaz’s ball was thrown into the air to catch Shamarh Brooks’ hit, Mohammad Khan jumped midair to catch Brook’s hit, dismissing Brooks for 70 runs.
While initially, it seems that the ball was impossible to catch, the all-rounder could be seen flying toward it and taking hold of it with his left hand.
Pakistan Cricket Board posted the video on their Instagram. The caption read: “Nawaz gets the breakthrough courtesy of a one-handed stunner from Shadab.”
Khan was praised by fans and supporters in the comment section.
“Only shaddy can do this,” a user commented.
“Best fielder in the world,” said another.
A user even said: “Superman Is here!”
