In the first innings, Virat Kohli took the catch to dismiss Jaker Ali off a delivery from Mohammed Shami. Kohli took the 156th catch of his ODI career. He thus equalled Mohammad Azharuddin's record of being the Indian with the most number of catches in the ODI format.

Star batter Virat Kohli equalled the record of former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin during the ongoing 2025 Champions Trophy match between India and Bangladesh on Thursday, February 20, in Dubai.

Kohli's average of 88.16 is the best among batters with at least 400 runs in the tourney. His compatriots Sourav Ganguly (73.88 ) and Shikhar Dhawan (77.88) trail him in this regard. No other batter has a 65-plus average in this list.

ICC Champions Trophy, Kohli, who has amassed 13,963 runs in 297 ODIs to date, will have the opportunity to break several records.

Amid a record-scripting show from veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami, who picked up his maiden five-wicket haul in a Champions Trophy game as India folded Bangladesh for 228 runs, the Men in Blue did display quite a few fielding errors.
