The former India captain's two brilliant efforts in the field during India's T20 World Cup warm-up fixture against Australia in Brisbane on Monday would have made Rhodes, a legend when it comes to fielding, proud. Bowling the final over of Australia's run-chase, Shami's last four balls produced four wickets back to back, including the play that featured Kohli's stunning one-handed catch right at the edge of the boundary to dismiss Pat Cummins. Cummins seemed to have creamed a low full-toss from Shami over long-on for a six, but Kohli timed his jump to perfection to pluck the ball out of thin air with his right hand.
Before that Kohli ran out Tim David while the Australians tried to take a quick single. Fielding in the inner circle this time, Kohli picked the pall and threw in one motion to hit the stumps direct.
