They say when Glenn Phillips is fielding do not take a risk around him. Virat Kohli would have realised that in the recent game against New Zealand in Champions Trophy 2025.
Notably, India have been put to bat in the 12th match of the tournament at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The fall of Shubman Gill saw Virat Kohli walking out into the centre.
Kohli came into this game on the back of a century in the last match against Pakistan. The Indian fans would have hoped for another good knock from the star batter. Even though, he had the form with him, Kohli did not look comfortable in this innings.
Virat Kohli Was Stunned By The Effort From Glenn Phillips
On the fourth delivery of the seventh over, Matt Henry bowled a fullish delivery at the fourth stump line. Kohli chased the ball and tried to drive it past the point fielder. He did not get a proper connection to the ball and ended up slicing it.
The ball was traveling fast and away from the fielder at backward point. But Glenn Phillips put in the effort of a life time. He dived to his left and stretched out his hand to take a catch that shocked Virat Kohli. The Indian fans in the stand were also seen after the dismissal of their favourite star.
