Jos Buttler World Record: England's wicketkeeper batsman Jos Buttler is playing in the T20 World Cup 2026 these days. He is with the England team in the ICC tournament. But, meanwhile, the discussion about the world record made by him is also in full swing. Although he did not make this world record on the ground of T20 World Cup, it has definitely been recorded in the history of cricket. Jos Buttler has taken the world's highest catch in a gentleman's game, whose height was 122 meters.
Former England captain Kevin Pietersen has shared the video of the highest catch taken by Jos Buttler. In the video, the ball was dropped from a drone from 122 meters above. This height is approximately equal to the 40th floor of the building. After the ball was released from there, Butler standing on the ground below was seen catching it.

Looking at the ball and its height, it can be estimated how difficult it would have been to catch that catch. Making correct judgment in high altitude catches is a big challenge. Buttler overcame that challenge and took the highest cricket catch and made a world record.
Jos Buttler jumped with joy after taking the catch. He ran and hugged Kevin Pietersen. Pietersen also told with great pride what Butler had done? He has made a world record, that too for the world's highest catch.
Talking about Buttler's performance in T20 World Cup 2026, his start has not been good. In the 2 matches played so far, he has scored only 47 runs for England at an average of 23.50. In this, 31 runs is his best score.
