Jansen, however, had other ideas.The tall South African all-rounder covered plenty of ground before launching himself into a full-length dive to his right. Jansen stretched out both hands and managed to grab the ball just inches above the turf.He maintained complete control of the catch even as he landed and slid across the outfield.It was an outstanding effort from the 6-foot-8 all-rounder and gave South Africa another important wicket.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">MARCO JANSEN, HOW DID YOU CATCH THAT!? \ud83e\udd2f\ud83e\udd2f<\/p>\n<p>Watch all the action from Australia\u2019s Tour of South Africa LIVE on FanCode \ud83d\udcf2<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/AUSvsSA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">#AUSvsSA<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2G5pq53RuE\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/2G5pq53RuE<\/a><\/p>\n<aside class=\"article-ad article-ad--middle\" aria-label=\"Advertisement\"><span class=\"article-ad__label\">Advertisement<\/span><\/aside>\n<p>\u2014 FanCode (@FanCode) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/FanCode\/status\/2103160754241495174?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">September 24, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Matt Renshaw\u2019s Resistance Comes to an End<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renshaw\u2019s wicket was particularly important considering the match situation.Australia were chasing 298 and had already lost several wickets after Mitchell Marsh\u2019s aggressive start.Renshaw was trying to keep the chase alive alongside the lower order and had reached 44 from 48 deliveries.But Jansen\u2019s catch ended his stay at the crease and left Australia at 215 for 7.With the last recognised batter gone, South Africa were able to put further pressure on Australia\u2019s lower order.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Australia were eventually bowled out for 230 in 41.2 overs, giving South Africa a 67-run victory and a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marco Jansen Makes an Impact With Bat and in the Field<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jansen\u2019s stunning catch added to an excellent all-round performance in Durban.Earlier, South Africa had been in trouble at 168 for 5 before Jansen joined Matthew Breetzke in the middle.The pair completely changed the momentum of the innings with a 107-run partnership for the sixth wicket.Breetzke scored an excellent 112 from 106 deliveries, while Jansen attacked Australia\u2019s bowlers and smashed 75 from just 59 balls.His innings included seven fours and four sixes and helped South Africa reach 297 for 8 from their 50 overs.Jansen was eventually trapped LBW by Nathan Ellis on the final ball of the 49th over.He then continued to make an impact in the field during Australia\u2019s chase.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"\/>\n<section id=\"ci-article-share\" aria-labelledby=\"ci-share-heading\" data-url=\"https:\/\/cricinformer.com\/marco-jansen-catch-stuns-australia-in-first-odi\/\" data-title=\"WATCH: Marco Jansen Takes a Stunning Diving Catch to Dismiss Matt Renshaw\" data-copied=\"Link copied!\" data-manual=\"Select and copy the article link below.\">\n<h2 id=\"ci-share-heading\" class=\"ci-share__heading\">Share this article<\/h2>\n<p>\n        <label for=\"ci-share-link\">Article link<\/label><br \/>\n        <input id=\"ci-share-link\" type=\"text\" readonly=\"readonly\" value=\"https:\/\/cricinformer.com\/marco-jansen-catch-stuns-australia-in-first-odi\/\"\/>\n    <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"ci-content-follow\" aria-labelledby=\"ci-follow-heading\">\n<div class=\"ci-follow__strip\">\n<h2 id=\"ci-follow-heading\" class=\"ci-follow__heading\">Get cricket updates.
