In the ongoing match between Australia and England at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Alex Carey is putting on a show in the field. Notably, the Men in Yellow won the toss and opted to field first. 

England, batting first, lost an early wicket as Alex Carey pulled off a breathtaking catch that will go down as one of the best in Champions Trophy history. Despite the wicket, England stitched an important stand for the fourth wicket. Notably, Ben Duckett, who smashed a century, stitched a 158-run stand for the fourth wicket with Joe Root.

Meanwhile, Alex Carey again stole the limelight for his fielding effort after his diving effort saw Harry Brook return to the pavilion for a low total of 3 (6). On the 1st ball of the 35th over, Brook tried to hit Adam Zampa for a big shot but miscued it. 

Eventually, Carey ran backwards and took a Travis Head-like 2023 World Cup final catch that got everyone pumped up and excited. Watch the wicket here.  

Josh Inglis Replaces Alex Carey As Australia's Primary Keeper For Champions Trophy 2025

Usually, Carey is seen behind the stumps doing the glove work for the Men in Yellow. However, in a surprise move, Carey was fielding in the thirty-yard circle as Inglis took over the keeping duties. 

There is a notion that keepers aren't great fielders without the gloves but Carey proved it wrong as he has already taken two great catches. Talking about the match, England are 286/5 after 42 overs and looking to pose a big total on the board.
