Matt Henry Catch Video: The third and last match of the ODI series between New Zealand and Sri Lanka (NZ vs SL 3rd ODI) is being played on Saturday, January 11 at the Eden Park Stadium in Auckland. In this match, Kiwi team's gun bowler Matt Henry wreaked havoc on the opposition team with his deadly bowling and took all 4 wickets. Meanwhile, Henry also took a spectacular catch, seeing which Lankan captain Charith Asalanka was heartbroken.

Actually, this incident happened in the 30th over of Sri Lanka's innings. Charith Asalanka came on the field shortly after the dismissal of Kamindu Mendis. He was trying to score his first run and was facing some difficulties. Meanwhile, showing a mirror to Kiwi spinner Michael Bracewell, he decided to hit a big six.

For this, Charith Asalanka targeted the second ball of Bracewell's over which was bowled by the Kiwi spinner on the line of off stump. Here the Lankan captain broke down and played an aerial shot towards long off. This ball was in the air after hitting Aslanka's bat, looking at it at one time it seemed that the batsman was going to get full 6 runs.

However, nothing like this could happen, because Matt Henry came in front of this six. He first ran towards the ball and then caught hold of the ball and threw it in the air. Actually, he could not stop himself while running, due to which he first tossed the ball and then went inside the boundary and came out. After this, Henry completed this amazing catch by catching the ball inside the boundary for the second time. This is the reason why now everyone is praising Matt Henry a lot.
