Glenn Phillips took a blinder a mid-wicket to send back the well-set Shubman Gill on 208 off 149. He ended the excellent knock of Gill by running and diving forward to take a catch that no one saw coming. However, he dropped an easy catch of Mohammed Shami on the next ball, but Twitter is hailing his superhuman abilities in the field.
Twitterati is having fun while describing the stunning catch and a blunder on the next ball by Glenn Phillips. New Zealand has to chase 350 runs to win the first match in the ODI series. This could easily have been a 370-run chase if Phillips had not taken the stunner to send back Shubman Gill.
Here’s how Twitter is reacting to the stunning catch by Glenn Phillips
What an extraordinary catch by Glenn Phillips to end extraordinary innings from Shubman gill.#IndvsNz#ShubmanGill
