Big Bash League security guard's incredible catch
An Adelaide Oval security guard surprised everyone when he effortlessly took a catch on the boundary line as Brisbane Heat beat the Strikers.
The bats fired, with plenty of boundaries, but it was a man on the other side of the rope who provided the real highlight of the night.
Sitting in a plastic chair, side on, up against the fence, a security guard showed off what could well be the safest pair of hands in Adelaide, nonchalantly catching a big six without so much as moving a muscle in his lower half.
He then proceeded to casually toss it back to the fielder on the rope.
His name is Vikas Chhikara, and his celebration was initially as low-key as the catch itself, just a quick thumbs up. Once the replay of his classic grab made it up on to the big screen - and the crowd roared its approval - he favoured his fans with an encore salute.
He spoke to BBL media after the match, saying it was a "natural reaction" to catch the ball, and that he was just protecting his face.
But the modest hero did say he used to field in the slips when he took the field himself.
"Second slip or something like that," he said. But if he takes the field again, he conceded a position change might be on the cards.
"If I play, they'll put me out there [on the boundary]," he laughed.
