October 1, 2024

A viral video has surfaced showing how the Indian cricket team reacted to Rohit Sharma’s incredible catch during the second Test against Bangladesh, with Virat Kohli’s playful imitation stealing the spotlight.

Before India’s dominant batting display on Day 4 of the final Test in Kanpur, Rohit Sharma’s spectacular one-handed catch had already captured the attention of fans and experts. The catch, which dismissed Bangladesh’s Litton Das, left not only the batter but also Rohit himself stunned by the acrobatic effort.

The moment occurred in the 50th over of Bangladesh’s innings. Mohammed Siraj set up Das with a series of pitched-up deliveries before delivering a slightly shorter ball that Das attempted to smash over the infield. Positioned at extra cover, Rohit timed his leap perfectly, plucking the ball mid-air with one hand, leaving everyone in awe.

A new video released on Monday shows the team’s hilarious reaction to the catch. Virat Kohli, unable to contain his laughter, led the fun by imitating Rohit’s stunning catch, with Ravindra Jadeja, Siraj, and KL Rahul joining in. Kohli’s comical reenactment of the moment quickly went viral, adding a light-hearted touch to the remarkable display of athleticism by their captain.

Despite the rain delays that hampered the match’s progress over the first three days, Rohit’s catch remained a highlight, providing an unforgettable moment for both fans and players alike.
