Virat Kohli, known for his sharp reflexes and athletic fielding, dropped a simple catch in the second slip during the first innings of the India vs. Australia Test match in Perth on Friday (November 22). The missed chance gave Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne a crucial lifeline at a critical moment in the game.
The incident occurred in the third over of Australia’s innings, bowled by India’s stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah. Labuschagne, who was yet to open his account, edged a delivery that flew straight to Kohli at second slip.
