Virat Kohli takes a stunning catch during Australia first innings
Perth, Dec 14 (IBNS): Indian skipper Virat Kohli on Friday took a blinder at the slips to dismiss Australian batsman Peter Handscomb on the first day of the second Test match here on Friday.
Peter tried to steer a short of length delivery from Ishant Sharma but Virat took the catch to stun him.
Kohli gave no time in jumping up and taking the catch as Peter looked at him and took moments to return to the pavilion.
