India captain Rohit Sharma pulled off a stunning one-handed catch out of thin air and celebrated it in style to delight the Monday crowd at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur after two days of rain in the second Test against Bangladesh.
Standing at mid-off, Rohit timed his jump to perfection as Litton Das‘s full-blooded drive against Mohammed Siraj looked to be heading to the boundary until Rohit’s right hand came in the way and the ball stuck right in his palm.
Das (13) couldn’t believe his luck as he had timed his shot well but couldn’t keep it on the ground or get enough height on it to beat Rohit.

The entire Indian team was left in disbelief before celebrations took over as Rohit ran with his hand raised and a beaming smile on his face.
It was the fifth Bangladesh wicket to fall at the score of 148, after Jasprit Bumrah had dismissed Mushfiqur Rahim (11) earlier on the fourth morning.

Mominul Haque, meanwhile, completed his half-century.
India lead the two-match series 1-0, having registered a 280-run victory in Chennai.
