In a remarkable display of fielding prowess, Harry Brook once again showcased his world-class skills during a match against the Northern Superchargers in The Hundred. His astounding double juggling act at the boundary denied Johnny Bairstow a certain six and left spectators in awe.
During the 30th match of The Hundred, the Northern Superchargers faced off against the Welsh Fire. The Superchargers batted first and set a target of 158/7. The Welsh Fire successfully chased down the target with eight wickets to spare.
Harry Brook’s contribution to the team was noteworthy, scoring a remarkable 105 runs off just 42 balls. However, it was his exceptional fielding effort that truly stood out, showcasing his athleticism and skill in taking a remarkable catch.
The highlight moment occurred on the 82nd ball of the match. Brydon Carse bowled a back-of-the-length delivery to Johnny Bairstow, who aimed to hit it over deep mid-wicket for a six. The ball soared high in the air, nearing the boundary line. Brook was positioned strategically and leaped into action to prevent the ball from crossing over for a maximum. While in mid-air, he managed to juggle the ball back into play before it touched the boundary. Upon landing back inside the field, Brook swiftly collected the ball and executed a relay catch with Adam Hose, who had rushed in to assist him.
Twitter users were quick to notice and appreciate Harry Brook’s incredible athleticism, with many praising his brilliant fielding effort.

How does that Brook catch count in #TheHundred? Surely the 2nd time he catches the ball he’s jumped from outside the boundary, so it should be 6? Otherwise you could just relay the ball back in play from the stands by jumping?!
