ToggleOf late, the game of cricket has become so athletic that the cricketers are coming up with regular surprises to the fans. After a lot of stunning catches in the recent past, there comes the brilliance of Chris Jordon to the fore, which left fans awestruck. He grabbed a single-handed diving catch off his own bowling, which also came to his non-dominant side.
The incident took place during the crucial second eliminator in the Caribean Premier League 2019. Chris Jordon, who is playing against Barbados Tridents, bowled a nice Pacy delivery at Carter, who has no answers other than defending it towards long-on for a single.

Chris Jordon finished with 2 wickets:
During the course, Chris Jordon leaped towards left off him and plucked the ball just inches away from the ground with his left hand. It certainly stunned all the audience in the ground, who have got nothing to do other than admiring the skills of the all-rounder.
However, the stunning effort didn’t come in the winning side, as Trinbago Knight Riders lost the crucial game. With the loss, they also ended up walking out of the tournament with Barbados Tridents making it to the finals of the tournament to face Guyana Amazon Warriors.
Batting first in the pressure match, Barbados managed to score 160 on the board. Surprisingly, none of the batsmen scored fifty but still, the collective tally saw them posting 160. Chris Jordon picked a couple of wickets alongside Ali Khan and Khary.
In reply to the chase, Simmons walked for a cheap score while Sunil Narine scored 4 boundaries before being dismissed. Colin Munro once again failed while Ramdin failed to convert his score to a big one. Kieron Pollard looked like winning it for the team but the run-out helped Barbados to come out on the top.

Though S Prasanna tried his level best with a quick-fire fifty off 27 balls, it was Barbados, who managed to fly away with the victory. Ashley Nurse bowled a sensational spell, who gave just 14 runs off his 4 overs with a couple of wickets.
Here is Chris Jordon’s masterpiece:
