WI v IND 2023: WATCH – Virat Kohli plucks a one-handed at second slip to dismiss Romario Shepherd

Indian bowlers ran through the West Indies batting line-up in the first ODI.

Virat Kohli | FanCode/ScreengrabThe three-match ODI series between India and West Indies got underway at Kensington Oval in Barbados on Thursday (July 27).

After being put into bat by India skipper Rohit Sharma, the hosts got off to a terrible start as they lost six wickets for just 96 runs. While the Indian bowlers were firing on all cylinders, fielders were ably supporting them.

One great piece of fielding was witnessed when Virat Kohli plucked a one-handed stunner to get rid of Romario Shepherd for a duck.

During the fourth delivery of the 18th over, Shepherd got a thick outside edge while attempting a drive against Ravindra Jadeja. Kohli, who was stationed at second slip, showed quick reflexes as he went to his right to complete the catch with one hand.
