In the above video, Colin de Grandhomme goes on to bowl against Marco Jansen. At this stage, South Africa were already in a very good position thus frustrating the Kiwis.
Marco Jansen took hold of an aerial shot that was timed well enough to reach the boundary line. However, from nowhere emerged Will Young.
The New Zealand international plucked the ball with his left hand which is not even his natural one. Will Young dives and flies through the air to keep hold of the bowl.
He successfully does it to complete one of the best catches in the history of test cricket. Upon the catch, his teammates rushed in quickly to celebrate the wicket as it was him who made the impossible possible.
New Zealand vs South Africa: Proteas close to sealing the match
The end of day three went on to show that South Africa were slightly ahead in the match. But New Zealand were not very far away either. But day four went on to clear a lot of things.
New Zealand lost the whole momentum through their poor batting. The top order of New Zealand completely went on to fail as the three batsmen walked back for single digit scores.
The Kiwis are currently at 94 runs with a loss of four wickets. They still require 332 runs in 91 overs to win the match.
