Watch: Virat Kohli displays insane athleticism to take an amazing one-handed catch
Indian skipper Virat Kohli led his team from the front yesterday against South Africa in the second T20 match in Mohali. Virat Kohli scored runs with the bat and remained unbeaten till the end to finish the chase, while fielding he was amazing as always.
Virat Kohli pulled off an amazing one-handed catch to remove South African captain Quinton de Kock. Navdeep Saini was bowling the 12th over when Quinton de Kock played a pull shot off short of a length delivery. The ball flew over bowler’s head and Kohli who was stationed at mid-off covered a lot of ground, stretched both his hands and pulled off an incredible blinder.
