OMG! This catch from Jofra Archer is something you will not see in international cricket; see video
Jofra Archer took an amazing catch near the boundary rope to leave everyone in awe. Archer who plays for Hobart Hurricanes took that catch to dismiss Brisbane Heat’s Max Bryant off James Faulkner’s ball. The 23-year-old displayed a great athleticism when Jofra outstretched his right hand and lobed the ball back as he was flying across the boundary line and came back quickly to complete the catch.
It may be the best catch of #BBL08 but it wasn't even @craig_arch's best for the @HurricanesBBL, according to the man himself! pic.twitter.com/5mpUAn7FgX

Archer later impressed with the ball and claimed two big wickets of Chris Lynn and Matt Renshaw. Hobart Hurricanes went on to win the match in just 14.2 overs as they chased down the target of 146 runs.
D’Arcy Short was the highest run scorer for Hobart Hurricanes as he hit an unbeaten 68 with Caleb Jewell hitting 38 ball 61.
The BBL has witnessed some top cricketers delighting cricket fans with such remarkable catches from time and again. Earlier this month, all-rounder Ben Cutting suffered a nasty blow to his face while attempting a catch during a BBL match against Melbourne Renegades.
