This amazing catch was seen on the second ball of the 14th over of St Kitts' innings when Cornwall bowled a good ball on the off stump. Ryan John, who was at the striker's end, hit an aerial shot to cross the mid-wicket boundary but only the top edge of his bat touched it due to which his shot did not get length and the ball remained in the air for a long time.
