On Tuesday, two more were added to that list, both moments of magic coming during the South Africa Women vs Australia Women clash at the Basin Reserve in Wellington. The first came during the South African innings. In the 46th over, Laura Wolvaardt tried to clear the mid-wicket boundary and would have probably managed it, if not for Ashleigh Gardner. The Australian jumped and plucked the ball out of thin air to complete an absolutely sensational one-handed catch. The South Africans were not to be outdone in the field as Mignon du Preez returned the favour, taking in equally brilliant catch during Australia's chase.
