The T20 Blast 2025 clash between Surrey and Sussex delivered high-octane action, but it was Sam Curran’s jaw-dropping catch that stole the spotlight. Surrey skipper Curran not only starred with the ball but also pulled off a sensational one-handed catch off his own bowling — a moment that left both the batsman James Coles and fans wide-eyed in amazement.
The Moment That Turned the GameDuring Sussex’s high-pressure chase, Coles—who was looking dangerous with a fiery 39 off just 18 balls—smashed a sharp straight drive. But Sam Curran reacted instantly, stretching out and grabbing the ball with one hand in his follow-through. Despite the minimal reaction time, Curran’s reflexes proved too good. His celebration, cool and composed, mirrored a moment straight out of a cricket movie.
Wicketkeeper Dan Lawrence was seen applauding with a huge smile, while Coles walked off, stunned.
