Everyone is stunned by Cameron Green’s one-handed scream against the West Indies

The second ODI between Australia and the West Indies took place on Sunday, and Cameron Green’s quick reflexes saw him dismissed. Chase attempted to play a ball from Sean Abbott on the leg side but struck it in the air during the 41st over of the West Indies innings. Green made an incredible one-handed catch despite the ball being a little bit away from him at short mid-wicket. Although there was considerable disagreement as to whether the ball touched the ground as he landed, the third umpire affirmed that Green’s effort was astounding.

In the second one-day international to complete the three-match series, Australia easily defeated the West Indies by 83 runs on Sunday. Man of the match Sean Abbott claimed three wickets and hit an entertaining 69.

At a steamy Sydney Cricket Ground, the visitors were bowled for 175 in the 44th over while chasing 258-9.

Josh Hazlewood got 3-43, and Abbott finished first with 3-40.

“The game got off to a difficult start as the West Indies bowled rather effectively at the beginning. Australia captain Steve Smith remarked, “It was a tricky surface, but our late middle order did a terrific job.”

“I thought 250 was around par and we came out and did the job really nicely with the ball.”

With a game still to play in Canberra on Tuesday, Australia won the series for the eleventh time in a row in one-day internationals.

While the West Indies bowled with better discipline in the first match in Melbourne, Australia won by eight wickets, and their hitters found it difficult to keep up with the hosts’ persistent assault.

Shai Hope, the captain of the West Indies, remarked, “I thought we stuck to our guns really well in the bowling department.” “But the Aussies bowled very well and we need to find a way to bat a bit more freely.”
