IND v AUS | Virat Kohli Takes A Screaming One-Handed Catch At Slip; Twitter Goes Crazy

Day 1 of the second Test between India and Australia is underway in Perth. Australia got off to a strong start after they won the toss and opted to bat first.


Openers Marcus Harris and Aaron Finch notched up their respective half-centuries as Australia posted 145/3 at Tea. But the highlight of the Day has to be the screaming one-handed catch taken by Indian skipper Virat Kohli.


Kohli grabbed a stunning catch to dismiss Australian batsman Peter Handscomb on the first ball of the 55th over. Ishant Sharma was brought into the attack to give India a breakthrough. The experienced bowler presented a perfect seam delivery to draw an edge off Handscomb's bat.


Kohli, positioned at slip, jumped to his right with his arm stretched out and took the blinder. With Handscomb down, Australia lost their fourth wicket, putting India at an advantage. Watch the stunning catch. 

 

The last session of play is currently underway with Australia batting at 182 with four wickets down. India lead the four-match Test series 1-0.
