Video: Chris Woakes' juggling catch against Prime Minister's XI

England fast bowler Chris Woakes almost messed up a regulation chance at deep square leg but recovered well to complete the catch in a tour match against Prime Minister’s XI at Canberra, Australia, on January 14, 2015, off the bowling of Chris Jordan to dismiss Lega Siaka (Watch the video below).

Batting first, riding on a massive 187 from opener Ian Bell, England posted a total 391 for the loss of six wickets on the board. Moeen Ali and James Taylor chipped in with 71 runs each. Left-arm pacer Jason Behrendorff picked 4 wickets for 79 runs. 

In reply, despite Glenn Maxwell’s attacking 89-ball 136, Prime Minister’s XI fell short by 60 runs, as the Australian international wasn’t supported by his teammates. Jake Doran was the next highest scorer, with 37 off 44 balls. 

Stuart Broad led the wicket-taking charts for the visitors by grabbing 4 wickets for 40 runs in his 8.1 overs. Jordan and James Tredwell bagged 2 wickets each.
