Indian captain Virat Kohli took a brilliant catch to dismiss England's Ollie Pope on day four of the third Test match against England at Trent Bridge on Tuesday.
Virat, who was caught by Pope in a great effort during Lord's test match, got even with when he pulled off a blinder off the bowling of Mohammed Shami.
Kohli too the catch on the first delivery of the 26th over when Pope edged one to the second slip off Shami. The ball was flying to second slip and KL Rahul, who was standing at the position, seemed set to take the catch.

The catch India on top of the match with England losing their fourth wicket chasing 521 runs in their second innings.
Jasprit Bumrah had dismissed Joe Root just four balls earlier getting him caught by Rahul at the second slip. Earlier, Ishant Sharma had sent back the openers Cook and Jennings in an inspired spell.
Pope's wicket reduced England to 64/4 before Ben Stokes and Jos Butler steadied the innings with good partnership.
