DUBAI, Mar 02 (AFP): New Zealand's Glenn Phillips pulled off a stunning catch to dismiss India great Virat Kohli in the batsman's landmark 300th ODI in the final group match of the Champions Trophy on Sunday.
Kohli fell for 11 off 14 balls after New Zealand invited India to bat first in Dubai with the result of the match to decide the semi-final line-up of the 50-over tournament.
But it was Phillips' fielding marvel that brought the match alive as he dived full stretch to his right at backward point and held on to the ball travelling at a fast pace from Kohli's bat off fast bowler Matt Henry.
