New Zealand opener Martin Guptill on Friday made his presence felt in the second innings of a thrilling contest against India, after pulling off a sublime running catch to dismiss Virat Kohli. Guptill charged forward from deep mid-wicket to complete a ripper of a catch, inches above the surface with Virat sent packing on the back of that brilliant effort.
The Team India skipper will be disappointed by his flick across the line off a fuller length ball down the leg-side, with his lack of timing costing the visitors dear. Kohli's dismissal certainly resulted in a lot of tension amongst the Indian fans, with a stern chase of 83 off 53 deliveries left to be executed at that stage.
