#4 Virender Sehwag v Australia, Amstelveen, 2004

Virender Sehwag has taken many spectacular catches in his time

Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag is best known for his nonchalant attitude on the field and like his batting, he could pull off excellent catches without batting an eyelid. That was on show in Amstelveen in an ODI against Australia back in 2004 when he completed a stunning one-handed catch at long on to send back Michael Clarke.

Clarke had lifted a full-length delivery from L. Balaji towards long on and it looked as if it was going to be a towering six. However, he did not quite get the distance and that brought Sehwag into play. Even then, the Indian did not look like he had much of a chance as the ball looked to be heading over the ropes. Sehwag, however, watched the ball all the way and timed his jump to perfection.

He also had to stick his hand up and catch a ball that was travelling at some speed. It was one of the most remarkable one-handed catches ever taken by an Indian.
