Rohit Sharma dropped an extremely easy catch in the ninth over that denied the first-ever hat-trick for Axar Patel in his career. It would've been only the second hat-trick in the history of ICC Champions Trophy but it wasn't to be as Rohit failed to latch on to an easy chance.

Team India captain Rohit Sharma failed to grab onto a simple catch, denying Axar Patel a chance at a hat-trick during the India vs Bangladesh Champions Trophy 2025 match. Watch below.

The crowd at the Dubai International Stadium was abuzz with the prospect of a hat-trick and Axar Patel duly induced an edge from Jaker Ali, which flew to slip towards Rohit Sharma.

Team India all-rounder Axar Patel sent a cheeky message to skipper Rohit Sharma after the Men in Blue secured a commanding six-wicket victory over Bangladesh in their opening match of the Champions Trophy 2025 on Thursday. In his post on X, the left-arm spinner wrote, "Wickets in the bag, win on the board… @ImRo45 Dinner pending hai."

Had Rohit Sharma taken the catch of Jaker Ali, Axar Patel would have become the second cricketer to take a hattrick in the history of ICC Champions Trophy.

I may take him (Axar) for dinner tomorrow,” said India captain Rohit Sharma after his drop catch cost a Champions Trophy hat-trick for Axar Patel.
