In the ongoing Super Four game of the Asia Cup 2023, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma showed his team how things are done on the field by taking a brilliant catch to dismiss Mehidy Hasan Miraz. It was during the 6th ball of the 14th over when Axar Patel bowled a flatter delivery outside off stump.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz poked at it and the ball went in the slips. Rohit Sharma dived low and pouched the catch easily. This was a much-needed fielding effort for the team as they had missed some easy catches earlier in the innings. The catch was also significant because it came at a crucial time in the match, with Bangladesh tottering at 59/4.
