India vs Australia: Maxwell becomes Superman, Kohli shocked
Australian player Glenn Maxwell grabbed a lot of eyeballs as he took an unbelievable catch to send the Indian captain, Virat Kohli packing for a golden duck.
Team India had a really poor start after electing to bat first in the First ODI against Australia at Chennai. After India lost Ajinkya Rahane cheaply, Captain Virat Kohli came to the crease but did not trouble the scorers. Kohli chased a wide ball and tried to hit it over backward point fielder but Glenn Maxwell took an unbelievable one hand catch to send Indian captain back to pavilion.
