A catch that made non entity Chris Lynn over night hero

New Delhi: When Jonty Rhodes displayed a superman act by running out Inzmam Ul Haq of Pakistan .in 1992 World Cup he not only became a household name but also changed the definition of fielding. The high standard of fielding that he set 22 years ago still continues and Chris Lynn showed it on Thurday night in Sharjah. If Jonty acted like a superman Australian Chris Lynn acted like a gymnast when he took a stunner just few inches inside the rope. Had he not displayed the super human act that hit would have surely crossed over the rope and given RCB yet another victory.
