The incident happened in the 14th over of the first innings when Super Giants were batting
The incident happened when the Super Giants were batting. Joshua Little bowled a fuller-length ball angling across to Mulder he smashed the ball in the air towards the backward point. It was coming to Neesham at lightning speed. He takes a big leap and the ball sticks to his outstretched right hand. He saw the ball well and it was a great effort from the New Zealander.
