David Warner hit his sixth century in World Cup in the match against Netherlands.

Australian batsman David Warner showcased his exceptional fielding skills with a jaw-dropping catch to dismiss Sybrand Engelbrecht of Netherlands. Australia batted first and posted a formidable total of 399 runs, propelled by centuries from Warner and Glenn Maxwell. Subsequently, Australia's bowlers took all over Dutch batting line-up in the second innings.

Netherlands were in a tough spot with a score of 53-4 after only 11 overs. Sybrand Engelbrecht, understanding the importance of stabilising the innings, chose a defensive approach to counter Australia's strong bowlers, which included Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Mitchell Starc.

Australia were brilliant on the field, Maxwell also produced a brilliant run-out to dismiss the Netherland opener earlier in the innings.

In the 14th over, Sybrand Engelbrecht decided it was time to shift gears and elevate the scoring rate. With brave intent, he attempted a pull shot against Mitchell Marsh, hoping to score runs in a higher run-rate.

Engelbrecht hit the ball high towards the deep square leg. Warner, fielding in that area, made a remarkable leap and caught the ball brilliantly. This astonishing catch amazed everyone, and Warner stopped Engelbrecht from making a big impact on the game.

David Warner's exceptional fielding effort was an extension of his overall brilliance in the game, having already delivered a spectacular century with the bat in the first innings.
