Indian fielders are on radar to the big final of Champions Trophy where some of the straight catches were dropped by players. New Zealand won the toss and choose to bat first, Rohit Sharma lost his straight 15 toss most by any captain. India won their all matches in this champions Trophy edition even beating New Zealand too in league phase. 

Today India's fast bowlers were really not upto the mark Shami who is the second highest wicket taker couldn't able to do much on he was taken out from opening batsman Rachin Ravindra where he lashed out boundries on him, even Hardik Pandaya who accompanied him too got some hard hits which reciprocated Rohit to move on to spinners.

Lagging In Catches Calls The Trouble

It was Shami who started the proceeding with dropping the catch it was 6th over of the match where he was bowling to Rachin Ravindra, he tapped the ball straight to Shami which was straight forward catch, Shami missed it and injured his hand. Shami in semi final too dropped the important catch of Travis Head

Next catch was dropped by Shreyas Iyer same of Rachin Ravindra at the deep mid wicket. Ravindra sweeped Chakravarthy ball over deep and there stood Iyer who came on running and dropped at the end. That catch was in hand which just tickled at the end moment. Though India made a good ground fielding contributions and took some crucial wickets too. 

The Pressure Of Final Pressurize

The pressure of final always makes you sometime tilt because your one mistake can make you away from the game. Same thing happened in 35 over too where Rohit Sharma dropped Darryl Mitchell at the mid wicket though the catch was quite a tuff one but at international standards you have to get those to acquire the trophy. Rohit Sharma extended his arms high but the effort was 100% but wasn't quite enough to take the catch.

Though it was not enough vice captain Subhman Gill made a blunder by dropping Phillips at mid wicket, where Phillips hit the shot at mid wicket and Subhman standing in shade charged over it but dropped at the end. These catch drops extended the New Zealand score to 251 where they where very behind than the par score but these small errors etched New Zealand to reach the respectable score. Now its upto India how they compose the chase.
