Chris Jordan took a screamer of a catch off his own bowling to dismiss Kyle Mayers in the 2024 Caribbean Premier League (CPL). The Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad hosted the match between Trinbago Knight Riders and St Kitts and Nevis Patriots on Sunday, September 22.

The dismissal came in the 11th over of St Kitts and Nevis Patriots’ innings. Jordan bowled a length ball and Mayers played it back to the bowler as the ball hit the top of the bat. The Englishman showed quick reflexes, diving to his right to complete the stunning catch. Mayers departed for 60 runs off 30 balls, a knock laced with three sixes and eight boundaries.
