India vs Nepal, Asia Cup 2023: Indian cricket team missed three catches within the first five overs against Nepal.
It was a horrible day for the Indian cricket team on the field as three catches were dropped within the first 5 overs against Nepal in the Asia Cup 2023 on Monday. In the very first over of the innings, Shreyas Iyer dropped a straight forward chance as Kushal Bhurtel edged a delivery from Mohammed Shami towards the slips. Just one ball later, it was Virat Kohli at cover point who was guilty of dropping an absolute sitter off Mohammed Siraj. Couple of overs later, Bhurtel once again edged a delivery from Shami and it looked like Ishan Kishan will have no difficulties in completing the catch. However, it went horribly wrong as the ball went right through his gloves leaving skipper Rohit Sharma in complete disbelief. Then Shardul Thakur missed an easy opportunity to stop a boundary the latter overs. 3 Catches dropped in the first 20 balls of the first inning. Each one by Shreyas Ayer, Virat Kohli and Ishan Kishan. pic.twitter.com/sEO35Og0r5 out of everything they could've adapted from pakistan's team, india chose their fielding skills. pic.twitter.com/Nw7SKdxHnY
