WITH AUSTRALIA FLOUNDERING at nine wickets down for 149 runs in the second one-dayer against Sri Lanka, one local cricket fan needed sustenance.
On his way back from the food stalls, he caught a glimpse of a searing Brad Haddin slog that was heading his way.
Hot food in one hand and milk cradled under his elbow, this legend used his spare hand to pluck the hurtling ball from the Adelaide sky.

The catch was the highlight of the day for Australia as Sri Lanka won by eight wickets to level up the one-day series at 1-1.
Lahiru Thirimanne was the Sri Lankan hero with an unbeaten 102 to comfortably steer his team home.
