[WATCH]- Travis Head Falls For 6 As Jofra Archer Grabs A Stunning Return Catch In AUS vs ENG 2025

Jofra Archer claimed the key wicket of Travis Head with a stunning reflex catch off his own bowling during the 2025 Champions Trophy clash between England and Australia at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, on February 22. Head managed just six runs off five balls before Australia lost their first wicket at 21.

The dismissal occurred in the fourth over of Australia’s chase. Archer delivered a full ball outside off, which Head tried to drive with hard hands toward mid-off or extra cover. However, the ball struck the bottom of the bat, and Archer reacted swiftly, taking a brilliant two-handed catch to his left.
