NEW DELHI: Virat Kohli failed to contribute with the bat in the first ODI against Bangladesh in Mirpur as India bowled out for a meagre 186 in 41.2 overs. But he made amends in the field with his brilliant fielding effort that cheered up the Indian camp.
Defending the below par target, India were in dire need of wickets and Kohli exhibited that not only the bowlers can win you matches but fielders also have to rise to the occasion to grab their chances that can change the games.
In the 24th over of the Bangladesh innings, Shakib Al Hasan went for the drive on the up off Washington Sundar but did not get all of it and Kohli at extra cover leaped to his right and plucked out a one-handed stunner.

Earlier, Shakib spearheaded an inspired Bangladesh bowling attack with five wickets to knock over India for 186.
KL Rahul managed to keep the visitors in the game, scoring 73 off 70 balls, while his teammates fell at regular intervals at the other end after Bangladesh elected to field to start the three-match series.
Allrounder Shakib, who bowls left-arm spin, claimed his fourth five-wicket ODI haul with an impressive 5-36 that included the key wickets of returning skipper Rohit Sharma (27) and Kohli (9).
