The barefoot fan ran towards the ball and plucked it out of the air, catching it with one hand.<br /><br />The game’s commentator and former New Zealand wicket keeper Ian Smith yelled: “He’s got it, he’s got it, he’s got it, you champion,” before announcing that this crowd catch was worth $4,000 (NZ$ 5,000).<br />No Comment | euronews: watch the international news without commentary | http://www.euronews.net/nocomment/
