Ben Sanderson to Riley Meredith, 1 run, nudged to mid-wicket

Ben Sanderson to Craig Overton, out Caught by Saif Zaib!! Has David Willey taken a spiderman catch and got his side into the final? He's surper charged up and gives a pep talk before his teammates go back to their fielding marks. So this was a full slower delivery, Overton thought he could have a maximum. In fact it was almost a six until the cameras suddenly picked up David Willey diving and flying beyond the rope. He took the catch with both hands and had the presence of mind to flick it back in time before landing past the boundary. Full credit to Saif for running to the right from long-off and staying close to Willey. Willey knew it was out the moment his partner took the catch. The third checks if Willey stepped on the rope before getting his hands on the ball but he was super clean. He roared and celebrated that catch. No heroics from Overton then today.
