AUS vs ENG: Watch - Jonny Bairstow Takes Exceptional Catch To Dismiss Mitchell Marsh In Ashes Finale

England National Cricket Team wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow took a fantastic catch at the crucial moment in the Ashes finale to get rid of the in-form batter and dangerous hitter, Mitchell Marsh.

Mitchell Marsh made his return to Test cricket in the ongoing Ashes 2023 series and made a significant contribution to his side, particularly in the batting department. The 31-year-old was expected to do the same when he joined Steve Smith in the middle of the fifth Test, but he failed miserably.

The all-rounder scored just 6 runs off 9 balls before walking back to the hut on the fifth ball of the 76th over, which was bowled by off-spinner Moeen Ali.

The veteran off-spinner Moeen, who was struggling with his injury, bowled a flighted delivery that spun in from the rough outside off-stump.

Marsh looked confused and he tried to defend it with minimal footwork as the ball took the inside edge and hit the pad before going out into the offside. English wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow showed excellent reflexes behind the wickets and grabbed a sensational catch with one hand.
