Rohit Sharma’s lightning-quick catch, executed with remarkable reflexes in just 0.45 seconds, ended Ollie Pope’s outing, showcasing Rohit’s exceptional fielding skills.

In the ongoing second Test between India and England at Visakhapatnam, a standout moment on day four featured Indian captain Rohit Sharma’s extraordinary catch to dismiss England’s Ollie Pope in the second innings.

When R Ashwin bowled close to the stumps, enticing Pope to attempt a cut, the result was an edge that swiftly flew to Rohit’s left at shoulder height in the first slip. With impeccable reflexes, Rohit made the catch, sending Pope back to the pavilion.

Commentator Dinesh Karthik revealed on air that Rohit had a mere 0.45 seconds to react and complete the catch, emphasizing his exceptional slip fielding skills.

On the match front, Ashwin then claimed a crucial wicket of Joe Root, who scored 16 off 10 deliveries. Earlier, Axar Patel dismissed nightwatchman Rehan Ahmed but leaked runs, allowing Rehan to score 23 in 31 balls.

England adopted a different approach in the second session, with Ben Stokes and Ben Foakes aiming to grind their way to Tea. However, Stokes fell victim to a brilliant direct hit from Shreyas Iyer, aided by some casual running from the England captain.
