It turned out to be a perfect case of teammates having each other’s backs when Mohammad Haris grabbed a rebound catch in a Pakistan Super League (PSL) between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Monday. The action took place in the sixth over of the match when Kamran Ghulam hit pacer Arshad Iqbal in the air on the leg side only to find two fielders converging for the same catch. While the catch wasn’t completed in one attempt, Haris showcased incredible presence of mind and some exceptional reflexes as he kept a calm head and grabbed the rebound that came his way.
The catch was so special that even the official Twitter handle of PSL touted it as the “catch of the match” and shared the video:
