A fan in South Africa took an incredible one-handed diving catch to earn a share of one million rand.

With the Lions going up against the Warriors, at St George's Park in Port Elizabeth, for a place in the T20 Challenge final, Rassie van der Dussen launched a Kyle Abbott delivery over long off and into the crowd for a maximum.

A number of fans made a move as the ball came sailing their way but one supporter wanted it more than most, running and jumping to take the grab left-handed.

It was a stunning take but it was not without cost, as a midair collision with another spectator saw the catcher emerge with a bloodied face.

Fortunately, the damage did not look too bad and the blow will have been softened significantly by the thought of a couple of hundred thousand rand coming his way. The man was the fifth #CatchAMillion winner of the 2016 tournament in which fans must take a clean, one-handed catch in the crowd to earn a share in the prize money.
