Boomers down Qatar, go unbeaten into Asia Cup quarters
Youngster Jaylin Galloway has led the way as the Boomers won an at times heated clash against Qatar by 110-82, advancing directly to the quarter-finals of men's basketball's Asia Cup in Jeddah. The 22-year-old Sydney Kings star scored an equal game-high 24 points, shooting at 80 per cent from the floor, as the Australians overcame a stern early test from winless Qatar at King Abdullah Sports City on Sunday. Coach Adam Caporn's youthful side went unbeaten in Group A - previously downing South Korea and Lebanon - as they chase a title three-peat. Australia will wait for the winner between hosts Saudi Arabia and the Philippines in the qualification to quarter-finals phase on Monday to determine their opponents in the final eight, which starts on Wednesday. The Boomers have won the Asia Cup every year since they were added to FIBA Asia in 2017. Player of the match Galloway had strong scoring support from bench player Reyne Smith (15 points), William Hickey (15 points, eight assists, five rebounds) and Will Magnay (11). After a sluggish start, the Boomers led by just 22-20 at quarter-time and 46-43 at halftime but broke away in a 31-point third quarter to grab a 77-63 lead and went on with it. Qatar were heavily reliant on star point guard Brandon Datrelle Goodwin, who matched Galloway's 24 points, but with inferior shooting efficiency. Goodwin was involved in the most heated moment early on when a seemingly incensed Hickey bumped into him, earning the Australian an unsportsmanlike foul. Boomers veteran Xavier Cooks fortunately restrained Goodwin, who appeared to take a swing toward Hickey. Goodwin incurred a technical foul. Caporn was pleased with the way his team turned things around after halftime. "I was really happy with the win. I didn't think we started very well defensively but we finished very well defensively," he said. "Tactically, we weren't doing a very good job of protecting the rim - I think they had 25 free throws by halftime, which is not a number that we can give up. "That was one of the main things that changed. Then as we got stops, we got a bit more of a rhythm offensively and our energy improved. "I was also impressed with out resilience. Qatar is a good team, good talent and a really good point guard who puts a lot of pressure on you."

David and Hazlewood shine as Australia sink Proteas
Australia have dominated South Africa's largely unknown batting line-up to claim an unlikely victory in the first match of a three-game Twenty20 series in Darwin. South Africa lost by 17 runs in Sunday's clash at Marrara Oval, bowled out for 161 after Australia were dismissed for a disappointing 178 from the final ball of an innings rescued by Tim David's 83. South Africa's innings was built around 71 in 55 balls from wicketkeeper and opening batsman Ryan Rickelton. Josh Hazlewood was the hero for Australia, claiming 3-29, while veteran legspinner Adam Zampa finished with 2-32 from his four overs. Opening the bowling, offspinner Glenn Maxwell took 1-29 from four overs and claimed a typically spectacular leap-over-the-boundary and toss-the-ball-in-the-air catch to get rid of Rickelton in the final over. Australia have now, unprecedentedly, won 23 of their last 27 T20Is including a 5-0 clean sweep in the Caribbean last month. The Proteas have managed only six wins from their last 13 matches and had not won any of their last three bilateral series. Wild batting saw Australia collapse to 6-75, attempting to cash in on fielding restrictions during the first six overs, but a bad miss in the field allowed Tim David to salvage matters, hitting eight sixes in his 52-ball innings while batting with the tail. David was given a costly life on 56 when he skied spinner Senuran Muthusamy to long on, only for Tristan Stubbs to drop a straightforward outfield catch. The next two balls went for six. Australian captain Mitchell Marsh set the tone by smashing the first ball of the match, from Lungi Ngidi, over long off for six after South African captain Aiden Markram won the toss and chose to bowl. But Travis Head (2) went in the second over and new No.3 Josh Inglis for a first ball duck in the third. Marsh (13) skied Kagiso Rabada to Kwena Maphaka at deep square leg, Cameron Green (35 in 13 balls) skied Ngidi straight up in the air and Mitch Owen (2) played the worst shot of the night, charging Maphaka to lose his off stump.

Greatest crowd catch ever seen as Australia defeat South Africa
Don't miss out on the headlines from Cricket. Followed categories will be added to My News. Australia's win over South Africa in the opening T20 clash has been overshadowed by one of the greatest crowd catches ever seen. Tim David turned on the fireworks early for Australia as they recorded the 17 run win, but it was a man sitting in the front row that stole the show.

In the 12th over of Australia's innings, David pulled a delivery off the bowling of Corbin Bosch that sailed towards the stands. The low soaring shot saw fans at Marrara Stadium attempt to haul it in, but it was one man who proved he had what it takes. And to make the catch even better, he did it while holding two beer cans in his other hand. Yes you've read that correctly, in his right hand he was holding onto two beers before hauling in the catch with his vacant left hand. Watch the iconic moment in the video player above A feat for the ages. Make him our new PM. Footage of the moment quickly went viral with cricket fans in awe of what the unknown individual had just produced. Mark Howard on Fox Cricket said: 'A nice snare in the crowd. Two cans in the right hand, the kookaburra in the left. Cool and casual.' wrote on X: 'CALLING IT - BEST CROWD CATCH OF THE YEAR AND IT'S ONLY AUGUST!' Another wrote: 'Legend status unlocked: Two tinnies, one snare.' A fourth added: 'Probably the best crowd catch of all time.' Fans in the area loved it. On the field it was the Aussies who proved too good against their opponents with Tim David once again leading the way. Australia found themselves in trouble after their top order failed to deliver any meaningful scoreboard impact. The Aussies quickly fell to be 3/30 before finding themselves in real strife at 6/75. Then Tim David clicked into gear. The middle order monster flipped the script and went after the South African bowlers as he sent the white ball to all parts of the ground. He quickly handed the momentum back to the Aussies as he raced to his half century from only 29 deliveries. His innings ultimately came to an end in the 18th over when he was caught after scoring 83 runs from 52 balls as Australia finished with 178 runs on the board. South Africa looked on track to chase down the Aussie total with opener Ryan Rickelton and Tristan Stubbs turning the screws with a 72-run partnership. Josh Hazlewood however put an end to their run when he removed Stubbs after capturing a bottom edge. Then it all unraveled for the tourists. Three balls later Hazlewood struck again by catching the outside edge of George Linde with Glenn Maxwell comfortably taking the catch at slip. Adam Zampa then got in on the action in the next over as he removed Corbin Bosch and Senuran Muthusamy in consecutive deliveries. A freakish Maxwell juggling catch over the boundary line to remove Rickelton ended South Africa's faint hopes as the visitors finished 9/161. The second T20 contest will take place on Tuesday from 7:15pm (AEST) at Marrara Stadium, Darwin. Originally published as Greatest crowd catch ever seen as Australia defeat South Africa
