5 costliest catches in the history of cricket! 1

Thisara Perera dropped Rohit Sharma’s catch : 5 costliest catches in the history of cricket! 2

This is another example of what happened when you drop the catch of a destructive batsman on a lovely batting paradise like Eden Gardens.

This is probably the costliest ever catch dropped in the history of ODI cricket in terms of individual achievement.

Like Guptill, Indian opener Rohit was batting on 4 when he offered a catch to Thisara at the Eden Gardens but Thisara dropped the catch and let Rohit bruise Sri Lankan bowlers and piled up 260 more runs to register the highest ever ODI score by an individual batsman.  The right-handed stylish batsman initially started slowly and as soon as he got the going he started lofting the ball. Perera, however, failed  to grab the catch.  Rohit capitalised on the dropped catch and score the highest ever ODI individual score 264.
