#4 Rohit Sharma's catching

By all means, it was Rohit Sharma's day in Lucknow. He just didn't put a foot wrong. He excelled in every single department (batting, fielding and captaincy). While his record fourth T20I ton was one the biggest talking points, his captaincy has been pretty underrated.

However, there's something that has gone under the radar and that has been Rohit Sharma's catching. The 31-year-old opener has been brilliant for India, especially in the slips cordon. He was excellent in the ODI series and now, he has taken that catching form forward in the T20s as well. In this game, he took a couple of very good catches.

The first one was a sharp catch at slip off Kuldeep Yadav. Darren Bravo got a thick edge which flew off the bat but Rohit Sharma plucked it out of thin air to give the chinaman his first wicket.

His second catch came late in the innings when Dinesh Ramdin flicked one towards square-leg off Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Rohit timed his jump to perfection to take another good catch. He took another catch towards the end of the innings as he finished with 3 catches in the game.
