Cricket is a wonderful sport that has seen a lot of amazing innovations over the years. The sport has gone through a lot of changes and fielding is one area that keeps improving continuously. Over the years, one-handed catches, athletic efforts on the boundary line, and stunning catches have added to the spectacle of the sport. In a video that is going viral, a player showcased disturbingly great acrobatic skills.

Meanwhile, Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar recently reacted to a video that showcased the same. When the youngster was fielding at the boundary, he tried to jump and throw the ball in the air to prevent a six. However, the ball was almost making its way back to the boundary. At this stage, the fielder used his football skills to kick the ball back inside the boundary where the catch was taken by his teammate.
