India’s final ODI against Afghanistan starts with an unusual record as Prasidh Krishna and Rohit Sharma combine in the field. Krishna takes the first three wickets of the Afghanistan innings, with each dismissal caught by Rohit Sharma at first slip. Multiple reports describe this sequence as a first in India’s 1,078-match ODI history, highlighting a bowler–fielder partnership that occurs in that specific form for the first time in the team’s ODI record span. The outlets agree that Rohit is directly involved in all three early wickets as the catcher at first slip, while Krishna is credited with claiming those wickets in succession. The early wickets give India an immediate advantage and set the tone for the rest of the innings. Both accounts focus on the historical nature of the three wicket dismissals and the rarity of the same bowler and catcher combination in India’s ODI match history through that point.
