    The England cricketer’s exceptional fielding effort near the boundary whilst playing in a match in Dubai has gone viral online.

    Thomas was playing for the England Physical Disabilities side in an invitational T20 tournament, hosted at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.

    In the final of the tournament, which was an encounter between Pakistan and England, a shot was played to the right of Thomas who was fielding at deep square leg. The English cricketer ran to the ball and made a brilliant stop after diving to his right.

    While executing the dive, Thomas’ prosthetic right leg fell loose. That didn’t stop him, though, as he hopped on his left leg to complete a remarkable piece of fielding.

    England went on to lose the match by three wickets but Thomas’ effort will be itched in the memories of many cricket fans for a long time to come.
