Bangladesh Stand-in Captain Litton Das took a stunning catch of Virat Kohli off the bowling of Shakib Al Hasan.

Litton Das was diving full length to his right to catch this out of the air. Virat Kohli is surprised by that feat of fielding.

Mehidy Hasan took an early wicket for Bangladesh after the hosts invited India to bat first in the opening ODI in Dhaka. Shikhar Dhawan was out for seven runs as India scored 48 runs for the cost of one wicket in the powerplay.

Shikib Al Hasan dismisses the India captain with his second delivery before removing Virat Kohli with his fourth, thanks to a brilliant catch from Litton Das. India is under pressure as a result of Shakib’s two strikes. While Rohit was bowled through the gate, Kohli went after a wide delivery and drove hard but Das at cover dived to his right to take a spectacular one-handed catch to stun Kohli.

Watch: Litton Das’ fielding brilliance has left Virat Kohli speechless:

Standing-in Bangladesh skipper Litton Das displayed a flash of brilliance on the field, which resulted in Kohli’s collapse. Fans anticipated some stability from the combination between new man-in Shreyas Iyer and the dependable Virat Kohli, even if India had just lost Rohit Sharma in the 11th over. Shakib and Litton Das, on the other hand, had different plans.

While Shakib bowled a tossed-up delivery that prompted Virat to push tentatively to the ball, he would have believed he had put the ball properly, but Litton Das made a spectacular catch out of nowhere. Das dove to his right and made a spectacular catch at short extra cover. Even Virat and the commentators were taken aback when the batsman finally took the long walk back to the pavilion.

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and KL Rahul, among others, have returned to the team. One major setback for India is that their star pacer Mohammed Shami will miss the entire series owing to a shoulder problem that became apparent the day before the game. Umran Malik has taken his place at this time.

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Sen
