WATCH: Cameron Green picks stunning diving catch to dismiss Roston Chase in 2nd ODI vs West Indies
Australia’s star cricketer Cameron Green took an outstanding catch to dismiss West Indies great batter Roston Chase during the second ODI between Australia and the West Indies in Sydney Cricket Ground on February 4. Notably, the precise catch was made in the 41st over of the West Indies innings.
However, the star batter, Roston Chase, played in the direction of mid-wicket after star bowler Sean Abbott delivered a good-length ball in the game to dismiss him from the game. Australia’s star all-rounder, Cameron Green, did a full stretch to his left and stretched his fingertips to pluck it. However, the middle-order batter frequently plucks these catches at gully; however, he has also done so at mid-wicket this time.

Speaking of the game, Australia posted a decent total of 258/9 in the given 50 overs as lower-order batters Sean Abbott, Matt Short, and Cameron Green produced decent runs in the game. However, the West Indies could only manage to get 175 runs before getting all out, which helped the hosts win the game by 83 runs and helped them seal the series by 2-0.
Challenging start to the game, West Indies bowled well and it was a tricky surface but our lower middle-order batted beautifully: Steve Smith
Meanwhile, stand-in skipper Steve Smith expressed happiness after their side sealed the three matches of the ODI series by 2-0 on Sunday. The star opening batter heaps praise on the lower-order batters, taking the opportunity after the top-order and middle-order faltered in the game. In addition, the stylish right-handed batter feels that they had given the lower total, but they were successfully able to defend it.
“Was a nice finish. Challenging start to the game, they bowled well and it was a tricky surface but our lower middle-order batted beautifully. I Thought 250 was par and we came out and defended. (Fraser-McGurk) Looked like he was enjoying himself, he hit that big six. Sutherland bashed it in on a length and bowled well, good to see them do well,” Steve Smith said after the win.
