Started off by Rohit, who was standing at the mid-off psoition when Siraj was bowling to Litton Das.

The field was set for a short-pitched delivery, but the bowler bluffed the batter, Litton Das, with the length ball as he tried chipping one over Rohit's head, but the Indian captain stunned everybody by correctly timing his jump to perfection, to take the catch.
