Some examples of high-profile catch drops in cricket history include:

The 1999 World Cup match between South Africa and Australia, where Herschelle Gibbs dropped a catch of Steve Waugh which cost the match to South Africa.

The 2019 World Cup match between West Indies and Bangladesh, where Carlos Brathwaite dropped a catch of Shakib Al Hasan which cost the match to West Indies.

The 2016 T20 World Cup match between England and West Indies, where Joe Root dropped a catch of Carlos Brathwaite which cost the match to England.

The 2005 Ashes series match between England and Australia, where Michael Kasprowicz dropped a catch of Andrew Strauss which cost the match to Australia.

These high-profile catch drops show that even the best players can make mistakes and it can turn the match around.
