New Zealand, Pakistan and Bangladesh are currently squaring off in a tri-series, ahead of the T20 World Cup. On Wednesday, New Zealand defeated Bangladesh by 48 runs at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch.

One of the loudest cheers during the match, however, was reserved for a spectator after he took a brilliant catch in the stands.

The incident happened in the 16th over of the New Zealand innings when Glenn Phillips struck Shakib Al Hasan for a six on the third delivery.

A fan, who was sitting in the alley behind the cow corner boundary, settled down and pouched the ball, much to the delight of the crowd.
