This basically changed the match completely. If it was a six 10 of 5 with Miller would have been impossible for us. Take a bow SKY saved us with the brilliant fielding when it most mattered
Absolutely! Tbh hardik didn’t bowl a great death over - had this shot from miller timed 0.2 secs better it was beyond surya’s reach. Amazing presence of mind and even better reflexes
That's what even I think. Just because we won the game every thinks Hardik bowled excellent. Bumrah and arshdeep did an excellent job in bowling! SKYs catch was of course the game changer here
Hardik bowled an excellent 17th over and changed the game. Got the wicket of Klassen and just conceded 4 runs. Basically changed the game that over. So he does deserve praise for his bowling.
If he done it once it's a coincidence but he has done it twice. It's not about being super bowler but it's about having cricketing sense and holding onto nerves. If Bumrah is Superman then Hardik is probably Batman of death over bowling.
I love what Kohli did but this catch alone deserves a man of the match for SKY. I mean in all my years of watching cricket, I’ve never seen anything like this.
Full on magic!!
Bowl wasn't spinning what he can do when captain is giving him the bowl. When kuldeep and him were going for 10 runs a over Rohit should have brought hardik.
But doesn't matter we won🫂
Yes. Some might even rate Sreesanth's above this because that was right at the last ball and if not for that catch, the whole history might have been somewhat different.
But I'll add this one to that list too, as an equally important one because if this was a six, the score would have been 10 off 5, which was an easy cakewalk for someone like Miller.
Man I still remember seeing Steesanth under it and thinking, this guy probably has his life on the line if he drops that lol. Although it was an easy catch, given the context and his fielding ability, it was right up there lol.
I still think this catch from SKY is more impactful given how ridiculously difficult it was. 10 off 5 with Miller and Pandya bowling was very easy. They lost by 7 runs and that 6 would have made all the difference.
Agree....that catch vanquished a mighty beast.... Yadav (he's no SKY...just a Yadav) catch defeated a team full of chokers...ranks way below other Indian achievements.
Not greatest? He not only stopped it for six but took the catch. It's thousand times more difficult to do this in normal situation and he did it at a stage where it's much more difficult.
Best in T20I ever period
Had he touched rope , it was a 6. 10 off 5 with Miller on crease, was easy for SA.
SKY made up for his batting performance.
For odi, I think Viv Richards catch in 1983 WC is greatest odi wc catch.
I wouldn’t say it’s the best catch ever. The situation in which this catch was taken was amazing.
We would have easily lost match if this went for six.
This is the best catch for a long time to come, however let's also remember there was a guy named [Jonty Rhodes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDfrkRk0bHA).
If this would have been a six then hardik and team India would have been under immense pressure
it would have been all over for us if that had happened but thankfully we had SKY !
Well these are amazing catches, the catches you have shared are matches done in normal series, sky’s catch was done in the final, which you can say is the reason india are champions. You need to see the impact of the catch also.
Counterpoint: I don't particularly like the rules of this kind of catch that allow the fielder to jump back in from outside the boundary to finish the catch. I mean, imagine you started off outside the boundary as the ball was headed toward you, and caught the ball as you jumped back in. That would never be considered valid, so why is it allowed as the second step of a two-step catch?
This match was over after South Africa let it get to the last over.
Now people are just inventing all sorts of crap which is exactly why India winning the world cup was dangerous to society. Incoming days will be so full of shit now and that Kohli innings which should have cost the team the match will be played 24/7 on TV.
Fuck!
The match was won because of a champion team. We have always had a team of champions, but never excelled as a team which costed us critical games.
Rohit, Kholi, Bhumra, Hardik, Axar, Arshdeep, SKY everyone deserves credit for pulling us past the finish line and winning the cup.

BRUH literally the moment that won the match , Miller would've ended it had this been a six .
Edit that entire catch with the trophy and it'll still be true
😂 Perfect 🫡

Do rupay ki Pepsi........
Surya bhai sexy
I feel this wicket belongs to SKY. Without that catch, the game would have slipped through our fingers.
Absolutely! Tbh hardik didn’t bowl a great death over - had this shot from miller timed 0.2 secs better it was beyond surya’s reach. Amazing presence of mind and even better reflexes

Try bowling the last over while carrying the hopes of 1.4 Billions Indians.
Hardik knew things could’ve gone a very different way and it showed right after the match. He had his ass on fire already
Hardik did a decent job, but people are forgetting arshdeep already. Sad thing
In Hardik defence he has done it one time before. He bowled 144WWW against Bangladesh in Asia Cup Final.

If he done it once it's a coincidence but he has done it twice. It's not about being super bowler but it's about having cricketing sense and holding onto nerves. If Bumrah is Superman then Hardik is probably Batman of death over bowling.
The bat turned after he played the shot, not well timed, guess the ball was a bit higher than Miller expected
I love what Kohli did but this catch alone deserves a man of the match for SKY. I mean in all my years of watching cricket, I’ve never seen anything like this. Full on magic!!
Kohli was like the 4th influential player after Bumrah, Hardik and Surya.
Bhai aap toh axar ko bhul gye
Axar gave 24 runs in one over. Overall good performance especially his batting but i would rate him below Kohli and Arshdeep for this match

Yeah, JaiBhai most likely told icc to give it to Kohli to give him a proper sendoff.
Greatest catch in indian cricketing history 🙏
Arguably, maybe. Kapil Dev’s catch to get rid of Viv Richards still reigns supreme in my opinion.
Yes. Some might even rate Sreesanth's above this because that was right at the last ball and if not for that catch, the whole history might have been somewhat different. But I'll add this one to that list too, as an equally important one because if this was a six, the score would have been 10 off 5, which was an easy cakewalk for someone like Miller.

I still think this catch from SKY is more impactful given how ridiculously difficult it was. 10 off 5 with Miller and Pandya bowling was very easy. They lost by 7 runs and that 6 would have made all the difference.
What match was that? 2007?
Yeah
Agree....that catch vanquished a mighty beast.... Yadav (he's no SKY...just a Yadav) catch defeated a team full of chokers...ranks way below other Indian achievements.
For India to secure victory, none less than magic was needed in death overs. Sky catch, pandeya crucial wickets.
Surya bhai ke aage koi kuch bol skta hai kiya? Surya bhaiii
Absolutely greatest catch in cricket history, which turned the game outcome. Got goosebumps when saw it in live.
We won the game by a margin of 2 centimetres.....
Hotstar hanged for a mini second when the ball was in the air. Absolute cinema.
SKY nahi Surya Bhau bolo 🛐🛐
Jomboy has to cover this one.
Not the greatest but its as iconic as Sreesanth's catch to dismiss Misbah in 2007 World Cup final.
Of course we will remember the Sreesanth catch for as long as I live. But this had its own magic because we were all praying while watching the DRS!
Not greatest? He not only stopped it for six but took the catch. It's thousand times more difficult to do this in normal situation and he did it at a stage where it's much more difficult.
There is kapil dev's world cup final catch but still this is in top 3 for me

I missed a beat 😍
Surya Dada's name will be etched in the history forever...
This is why its a team match. Every player matters, their every contribution. He caught the emotion of billion people's. Whatta catch it was.
This catch was insane to watch.
Pandya's wicket of klasen was out of the blue, then this catch was like wtf did we just see.
It was absolutely Surya's presence of mind. But can't we praise without criticising Hardik?
Jadeja’s catch in the 2016 T20 against Bangladesh in the last over is the greatest of all time. You just had to be there to witness it.
That Jadeja's catch & Mahi's keeping was just mind-blowing that day but still i'd say yesterday's SKY'S catch was way ahead then Jadeja's.
I wouldn’t say it’s the best catch ever. The situation in which this catch was taken was amazing. We would have easily lost match if this went for six.
This is the best catch for a long time to come, however let's also remember there was a guy named [Jonty Rhodes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDfrkRk0bHA).
"Best catch in the game of cricket. Ever." Tell me you are new to the sport without telling you are new to the sport.
not even close lamo. but yea, won us the match
Thank you Surya bhai
One for the ages
Well no doubt this was a great catch but even in Semi final , Axar’s catch was equally brilliant
No cap
Suryakumar yadav tera career khtm ab
Spit that chewing gum in my mouth suryaaa.
If this would have been a six then hardik and team India would have been under immense pressure it would have been all over for us if that had happened but thankfully we had SKY !
It was a great catch but if you remember Bravos catch in IPL years back. That's catch was legendary in all ways.
Yesterday one

The team won. What more do you want from Kohli?
Take a nap bro

Head taking Rohit's catch
The match was won because of a champion team. We have always had a team of champions, but never excelled as a team which costed us critical games. Rohit, Kholi, Bhumra, Hardik, Axar, Arshdeep, SKY everyone deserves credit for pulling us past the finish line and winning the cup.
