Take a bow. Superb work on the ropes.

If England are going to fight their way back into their Champions Trophy match against Australia then Jason Roy's remarkable catch in the deep to dismiss Glenn Maxwell could be a turning point. Roy's superb athleticism left the score at Australia 239-5, but such was the skill involved here, the third umpire understandably had to take his time to judge whether Roy had touched the boundary with his foot when he pulled off this stunning catch at full-stretch. Not only that, but he threw the ball back before landing over the rope and ran back to catch it. Superb work from the Surrey player. https://twitter.com/prakashnanda101/status/873519292616024068 There's only one thing that people want to talk about. https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/873517602936586240 https://twitter.com/surreycricket/status/873518622899134464 https://twitter.com/MohammadKaif/status/873519224450187264 https://twitter.com/TheBarmyArmy/status/873517731676553216 https://twitter.com/johnniemojo/status/873517713414656000 https://twitter.com/scot_munroe/status/873517710407340032
