James Neesham made a Herschelle Gibbs mistake in the SA20 match last Saturday, after which his team had to pay the price of losing the match.

James Neesham Catch Drop Video: The SA20 league is being played in South Africa where last Saturday, the 20th match of the tournament was played between Paarl Royals and Pretoria Capitals at Boland Park, Paarl. During this match, Pretoria all-rounder James Neesham made a mistake for which the team had to pay the price by losing the match.

Let us tell you that the great South African player Herschelle Gibbs also made a similar mistake, after which his team was defeated by Australia in the World Cup match.

Dropped the catch that came in hand, then Joe Root created havoc

English batsman Joe Root played an unbeaten inning of 78 runs on 56 balls for Paarl Royals in the match against Pretoria. He was the only batsman who scored runs by holding one end, although in the meantime he also got a big lease of life.

This entire incident happened in the 5th over of the Royals' innings. Here, on the last ball of Jason Behrendorff, Joe Root, while playing a pull shot, hit the ball towards deep square leg, after which Jasham Neesham, posted there, took a brilliant catch while running fast, but in the meantime, while he was running, the ball suddenly hit him. It slipped out of Neesham's hands.

What was to happen after this, the smiles on the faces of the Capitals players turned into mourning. The umpire investigated the incident in which it became clear that Neesham had not completed the catch due to which he was not routed out.

If this ball had not slipped from Neesham's hand, Root would have been out after scoring 13 runs on just 11 balls. But this did not happen and he scored unbeaten 78 runs playing 56 balls. On the basis of this, Royals scored 140 runs by losing 4 wickets in 20 overs and then restricted Pretoria to 129 runs in 20 overs and won the match by 11 runs.

Herschelle Gibbs also made a similar mistake, then Steve Waugh scored a century.

In the year 1999, the last match of Super 6 in the ICC World Cup was played between Australia and South Africa. During this match, Steve Waugh played a flick shot on the ball of Lance Klusener, after which Herschelle Gibbs, like James Neesham, took the catch and dropped it. This was very costly for his team, because South Africa paid the price by losing this match. Steve Waugh had scored unbeaten 120 runs on 110 balls in the match.
