India are facing Nepal in the second fixture of Asia Cup 2023 on Monday, September 04 at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele. Despite facing an inexperienced Nepal side, India’s fielding was disastrous during the match as they dropped three catches in the first five overs. Shreyas Iyer, Virat Kohli and Ishan Kishan shelled down regulation catches to give reprieves to Nepal openers.

Notably, India has the second lowest catching efficiency rate since the World Cup 2019 of 75.1%. It’s only better than Afghanistan who have a rate of 71.2 %. The Rohit Sharma-led side needs to improve their fielding massively with the World Cup 2023 just a month away.
