In a stunning display of athleticism, Australia's Sean Abbott took one of the most unbelievable catches during the 3rd ODI against South Africa.

The jaw-dropping moment occurred in the 47th over of the innings when South African batter Marco Jansen attempted to clear the infield with a lofted shot, which was seemingly destined to sail over the fence for a six.

Positioned at sweeper cover, Abbott sprinted to his left, stretching his body to its limits to complete a one-handed catch that defied belief. Despite taking a tumble after securing the catch, Abbott held onto the ball

The catch was so extraordinary that even Marco Jansen was left in disbelief. He placed his hand on his head in sheer astonishment before making his way back to the dressing room.

Abbott's spectacular fielding display showcased his exceptional athleticism and skill, leaving fans and players alike in awe of this unforgettable moment.

South Africa, meanwhile, finished with 338/6 riding on a hundred by Aiden Markram.
