England got the first batting in the first match of the three -match ODI series between England and South Africa on Tuesday (September 2) at the headingley ground in Leeds, but the start was not good. Opener Ben Docket (5 runs) soon returned out.

After this, Joe came to the crease and won the hearts of fans with his beautiful cover drive as soon as he came. Everyone hoped that the route would score a big score, but it could not happen.

In the eighth over, Lungi Angidi bowled a little full length, Joe Root tried to play the shot but the ball went back with the edge. Wicketkeeper Ryan Recllett diverted a catch with one hand. Although the ball was sparked from his hand, he caught him in a second attempt, showing amazing agility.

Root was dismissed for 14 runs in 17 balls and England’s team came under pressure. This catch of Ricelton is becoming very viral on social media.
