The 16th match of the T20 World Cup 2024 is being played between Netherlands and South Africa at the Nassau International Cricket Stadium in New York. African captain Aiden Markram won the toss and invited the Netherlands to bat first. Markram’s decision was proved right by his bowlers.

Marco Jansen sent Michael Levitt back to the pavilion without opening his account in the very first over. After this, Othniel Bartman made Max O’Dowd his victim. But Marco Jansen had a great contribution in this wicket. He took a wonderful catch of O’Dowd in the slip, the video of which spread like fire on social media.

Actually, Bartman came to bowl in the fourth over of the innings. He bowled three consecutive dot balls to Max O’Dowd and the fourth ball took the edge of his bat and went to the second slip. Marco Jansen, standing there, dived to his left and took an incredible catch. Fans are praising his tremendous effort.
