South Africa National Cricket Team player Lungi Ngidi came up with a stunning effort on the field during the ongoing game against England National Cricket Team in the ICC Champions Trophy. The match between the teams is taking place at the National Stadium in Karachi.

South Africa National Cricket Team bowlers have asserted their authority over the England National Cricket Team batters in the ongoing game. The Proteas have completely dominated the opposition with the ball, leaving them struggling at 129 for seven.

South Africa National Cricket Team players were magical on the field

While their bowling has been right on the money, the South Africa National Cricket Team players have been magical on the field as well. The Proteas have taken brilliant catches with one of the finest efforts coming from Lungi Ngidi, who took a brilliant catch to remove Jamie Overton.

On the third ball of the 26th over, Kagiso Rabada bowled a length delivery outside off, to which Jamie Overton got forward to whip and ended up getting a thick leading edge. The ball flew towards the mid-on, where Lungi Ngidi was stationed, and it seemed that the ball would clear the South African pacer.

However, at the last moment, Lungi Ngidi stretched his hands in front of him and took a brilliant catch with his left-hand only. He went to the ground but managed not to drop it as the South Africa National Cricket Team players ran to congratulate Ngidi for his effort. The English player was absolutely shocked seeing the catch.

Here's the video:

Jamie Overton was back in the hut after scoring just 11 runs off 20 balls. The all-rounder managed just one boundary, and with his wicket, the England National Cricket Team lost their 7th wicket inside 26 overs, coming under massive pressure.

England gets all out for 179 runs

South Africa started brilliantly with the ball, with Marco Jansen picking three wickets inside the powerplay. However, after his start, the other bowlers chipped in as well and didn't let England National Cricket Team batters settle at all.

Ben Duckett (24) had start but failed to carry on. However, after that, Joe Root (37) and Harry Brook (19) tried to get going and bring their team back in the game with their 62-run stand but also couldn't last long. After that, skipper Jos Buttler (21) looked to hold one end, but the same fate unfolded for him as well.

England National Cricket Team got all out for 179 runs. Apart from Marco Jansen, Wiaan Mulder also picked three wickets while Keshav Maharaj chipped in with two scalps. Lungi Ngidi and Kagiso Rabada were amongst the wickets as well.
