Watch: Chris Gayle's Magical One-Handed Catch Leaves Fans In Awe

Chris Gayle claims he is the real 'Universe Boss', and very often comes up with stuff that makes you believe his claim. Chris Gayle on Monday pulled off one of the best close-in catches in recent times during the final of the Global T20 in Canada. Playing for Vancouver Knights against West Indies B, Gayle, who was fielding at first slip, showed superb reflexes to send back Kavem Hodge.

Hodge got a thick edge off leg-spinner Fawad Ahmed and the ball straight went to Gayle. He dived to his left but the ball bounced off the palm of his left hand. The Jamaican still managed to twist in the air as he fell and grab the ball with his right hand, behind his back.

Gayle's teammates were ecstatic after seeing his magic. The catch left Hodge bemused and the fans in awe.
