Jonty Rhodes and Sachin Tendulkar

[prinzo]

hi guys , I always think about this catch from Jonty Rhodes against Sachin Tendulkar. To me it is the greatest ODI catch by the GREATEST fielder of all time (in my opinion) against the GREATEST batsan of all time (FACT) , the great Sachin Tendulkar. I think it was in the mid 90's when India toured SA. Jonty was fielding at point. Tendulkar hit a shot and Jonty dived to his left hand side full stretch into the air to catch the ball with both hands. Do you guys remember this? I wish i could of recorderd it.

You mean the one he grounded and claimed as a catch? :winky:

[prinzo]

Video?

Video?

I very much doubt they have it on. When youtube was new we had some of the rarest of rarest videos. But gradually they took everything down due to copyright infringement.

Exactly. I remember that catch. That was clearly grounded.

One which Adam Bacher took in the Cape Town test was better

That was the catch which never should have been. Rhodes dived, took the catch and grounded the ball. It wasn't even that the ball touched the ground for an instant - Rhodes dragged the ball on the ground till the time he completed his dive and the ball was in touch with the ground for a good 1-2 metres.

It wasnt out There was another instance this happened where jonty after taking a fantastic "catch", grounded the ball.The batsman was Dravid. That was in a finals in which Dravid hit a 80 or something. We needed something like 50 off last 10 overs. We collapsed right after. Could never find that video.
