Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Sixers, Final, Big Bash League 2025-26 - Player Highlights

Mitchell Starc to Finn Allen, out Caught by Jack Edwards!! Wow! Edwards has pulled off a stunner. Ufff! The wicket might have come a bit too late for the Sixers, but what a catch by Edwards. Definitely a contender for catch of the tournament. Full and outside off, Allen drills the drive and does not bother to keep it down. The ball is flying towards extra cover. Edwards dives to his right, sticks his hand out and gobbles it up. He was aerial when he took that catch. What makes it more incredible is that the ball was travelling, and still Edwards managed to time his dive to perfection. Finn Allen c Jack Edwards b Mitchell Starc 36(22) [4s-4 6s-1]
