On a day when the Indian fielders were at the receiving end for dropping easy catches, skipper Virat Kohli took an absolute stunner to dismiss debutant Cameron Green.
It all happened in the 41st over of the Australian innings bowled by off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. The right-armer went for a short delivery which was rightly pulled by G𝓡reen. However, the ball went near Kohli, who had placed himself at mid-wicket.
The Indian captain dived full stretch to his right and grabbed an absolute s꧅creamer. The red-leather was going quickly wide of Kohli, but 🌠he managed to put his hands under the ball on time and completed a phenomenal catch.
