Bangladesh captain Litton Das took a brilliant catch to dismiss Indian batter Virat Kohli for nine in first ODI in Dhaka on Sunday, December 4. Kohli was smartly deceived in flight by Bangladesh left-arm spinner Shakib Al Hasan and Das did the rest.
The Men in Blue were invited to bat by Bangladesh after losing the toss. In the 11th over of the innings, Kohli miscued a drive off Shakib and ended up playing an uppish drive with one hand. The ball went towards cover where Litton dived full length to his right to pull off a one-handed blinder.
The acrobatic piece of fielding left Kohli stunned and Team India in big trouble at 49/3.
Earlier, in the same over, Shakib had dismissed Men in Blue skipper Rohit Sharma (27 off 31) as well. The Indian opener was completely beaten by an arm ball as the delivery sneaked in the gap between bat and pad and cleaned him up.
India got off to a poor start after losing the toss as opener Shikhar Dhawan was bowled for seven. Having begun cautiously, Dhawan looked to break free by attempting a reverse sweep off Mehidy Hasan Miraz. However, he only managed to guide the ball back onto his stumps.
Team India were 80/3 after 17 overs with Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul at the crease.
