The off-spinner raises his hand to acknowledge as they get ready for the next ball. Ashwin, moments ago, had taken a crucial catch to provide India a much-needed breakthrough.

A stand Ashwin, Jadeja and Washington Sundar hadn't been able to breach at the time. The duo had added 50 runs already and were looking good for many more. That is when Mitchell did what he has done so well at this stadium - jump out of the crease and loft spinners down the ground.
