Cooper Connolly’s impressive ODI tour in Africa continued with a screamer for Australia on the first ball of the second match against South Africa at The Wanderers Stadium.
Mitch Marsh won the toss in Johannesburg and elected to field with his side right on top from the start.
Josh Hazlewood pitched his ball at a good length outside off-stump with Aiden Markram attempting a cut shot towards point.
Connolly leaped high and took the catch one-handed to send Markram packing.
“What a wonderful catch,” Shaun Pollock said on Fox Cricket’s coverage.
Greg Blewett added to the plaudits.
“He’s a serious talent, Cooper Connolly,” he said.
