BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) Jason Roy took a sensational catch on the boundary to precipitate a late collapse by Australia in its 277-9 against England in the Champions Trophy on Saturday.
Needing a victory to qualify for the semifinals, Australia was motoring along at 239-4 in the 43rd over when Glenn Maxwell (20) swiped a hard, flat shot off paceman Mark Wood that was heading for a six until Roy reached above his head for a brilliant catch.
Teetering next to the boundary edge, Roy threw the ball into the air to avoid carrying it over and returned to take it for a second time.
