Virat Kohli Grabs Blinder During World Cup 2023 Game Between India And Australia. WATCH

The right-handed batter got an outside edge and the ball carried towards the slip where Virat Kohli was stationed.

The Men in Blue have started their World Cup 2023 campaign as they are taking on Australia at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. After winning the toss, Pat Cummins asked the Indians to bowl first on a slow pitch in Chennai.  Rohit Sharma’s blokes came up with a solid start as they gave an early blow to Australia.

India’s premium pacer Jasprit Bumrah got rid of Mitchell Marsh in his second over of the game. Bumrah’s sharp outswinger snared Marsh who is one of the attacking batters from the lot. The right-handed batter got an outside edge and the ball carried towards the slip where Virat Kohli was stationed. The former India skipper ended up taking a sensational catch and ensured India’s first breakthrough. The video of the same has been doing rounds where Kohli was spotted diving towards his left side to finish the catch.

After taking the catch, Virat Kohli also scripted as he broke former India player Anil Kumble’s record of 14 catches and also became the most successful fielder from India. Virat has grabbed a total of 15 catches in 27 ODI World Cup games.

India are playing without the services of regular opener Shubman Gill as he has been ruled out due to dengue. The Jharkhand-based batter Ishan Kishan filled the void and is expected to open the innings alongside India’s skipper Rohit Sharma.

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.

Australia (Playing XI): David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Steven Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Cameron Green, Alex Carey(w), Glenn Maxwell, Pat Cummins(c), Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Adam Zampa.
