Chameera to Kohli, out Caught by Mitchell Starc!! Too late? Starc was at the edge of the fence and takes it. His calm hands under pressure is what DC wanted and Starc has taken a very smart catch in the end. Was a length delivery, well outside off, Kohli looked to launch it inside out but failed to get it over the fence. Got it too high and the distance was missing on the shot. Chameera gets his first wicket. DC needed a wicket but is it too late? Chameera would be elated for sure. Credit to Starc, one two extra steps and he would have stepped on the cushion. Kohli c Mitchell Starc b Chameera 51(47) [4s-4]
