Glenn Phillips Takes Unbelievable Catch: We all know that Kiwi is a bird that cannot fly and it is found most in New Zealand, that is why the New Zealand cricket team is also known as Kiwi team, but let us tell you that Kiwi can fly. If anything, this was seen in the first match of the three-match Test series between New Zealand and England being played on the Christchurch ground. Kiwi team player Glenn Phillips, who has made a name for himself in the cricket world for his extraordinary fielding, once again took such a catch on the field that not only the fans but also the players of both the teams could not believe their eyes. This catch can be judged from the fact that when Phillips caught it, he was completely in the air.
Ollie Pope played an excellent cut shot but the ball could not cross Phillips.
Tim Southee was bowling for New Zealand in the 53rd over of the first innings of the England team. He bowled the second ball of this over a little short on good length, on which Ollie Pope went on the back foot and played a cut shot which was quite fast. At the same time, the ball was passing through the radar of Glenn Phillips who was fielding there and he dived in the air on his right side and caught it with one hand, on which everyone present there was surprised and Pope who scored 77 runs was excellent. While he was batting, he had to move back towards the pavilion.
England in strong position due to Harry Brook’s century
Talking about the Christchurch Test match, the host New Zealand was limited to 348 runs in its first innings, whereas at the end of the second day’s play, the England team had scored 319 runs in its first innings at the loss of 5 wickets. In which an excellent century was seen from the bat of Harry Brook and he was unbeaten after scoring 132 runs, apart from this, captain Ben Stokes was also unbeaten after scoring 37 runs. The England team is now only 29 runs behind New Zealand’s first innings score, so they will try to take a big lead on the third day.
