[Watch] Sybrand Engelbrecht pulls off a blinder to dismiss Litton Das early in BAN vs NED 2024 T20 World Cup match
Netherlands’ Sybrand Engelbrecht took a stunning catch to dismiss Bangladesh opener Litton Das early in the ongoing 2024 T20 World Cup Group D match in Kingstown on Thursday (June 13). The exceptional catch saw Das depart for just one run off two balls. With the dismissal, the Netherlands reduced Bangladesh to 23/2 in 3.1 overs.
Aryan Dutt bowled a full-length ball outside off and Litton shuffled across for a slog sweep. The right-hander got more height than distance as Engelbrecht moved to his left from deep square leg to complete a diving catch with both hands.
