For a 140-kged giant of a cricketer, Rahkeem is pretty agile for his weight and he turned many eyes when he pulled off a sharp catch to play his part in England opener Rory Burns' dismissal on the opening day of the ongoing 3rd Test between England and the West Indies at Old Trafford.
The 6 feet 8 inch giant like Cornwall plucked a sharp catch at slips off the bowling of spinner Roston Chase Cornwall to dismiss the well settled Rory Burns.

In the 48th over of the England innings, opener Burns looked to cut a short pitched delivery bowled by spinner chase but only managed to edge one to the slips to Cornwall. It initially appeared the the outside edge would fly over the first slip but the beefy West Indian showed tremendous reflexes as he thrust his right hand and the red cherry got stuck in the right hand as an impossible catch was made possible.
Opener Rory Burns departed after compiling a well made 57 runs. At stumps on Day 1 of the 3rd Test, England posted 258/4 riding high on an unbeaten 136-run partnership by Ollie Pope (91* runs off 142 balls) and Jose Buttler (56* runs off 120 balls) at Old Trafford in Manchester.
