We have already witnessed a week of the Cricket’s biggest tournament started in England and Wales on May 30th. Within a week we have seen everything low scoring matches, high scoring games, controversies, stunner and what not. It is still a long way ahead and we are in for a roller coaster ride.
The highlights of the 1st week are surely the three stunning catches. One by Ben Stokes, other by De Kock and another stunner by Sheldon Cottrell today.
Ben Stokes
The opening game of the World Cup was Ben Stokes game. 89 quick-fire runs with the bat. a stunner on the boundary. Run-Out. And The player of the match. Ben Stokes has everything in the game and the most important thing as well. His team won.

Quinton de Kock
South Africa is having a miserable World Cup. Played 3, Lost 3 and almost out of the tournament. Amid all this Quinton De Kock has something to cheer. Against India, he dismissed World’s No. 1 batsman and India’s skipper Virat Kohli by grabbing a stunner.
Two stunning wicket-keeping catches and a handsome blow for six feature in today’s @Nissan Play of the Day moments.
Which was your favourite of the three?

Sheldon Cottrell
Sheldon Cottrell dismissed Steve Smith with a stunning catch near the boundary ropes. In the 45th over Steve Smith, flick shot was looking like a maximum but Sheldon had other plans. However, Gayle dismissal after a no-ball was the controversy which grabbed everyone’s eye. But, take nothing away from Sheldon Cottrell.
WHAT A CATCH! 👀
We’ll salute this effort by Sheldon Cottrell! 🙋♂️#MenInMaroon #CWC19 pic.twitter.com/ANRCn7Dset
