New Delhi: England cricketers James Vince and Joe Root displayed a superb team-effort on Saturday to complete a wonderful catch to dismiss Sri Lankan batsman Shaminda Eranga during second day's play of second Test, which is being played at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street.

Minutes ahead of the close of 2nd day’s play, Eranga tried to drive Stuart Broad towards cover region but only managed a thick outside edge. And as the ball flew towards third slip, Vince jumped into the air to grab it but the ball deflected from his right hand and went straight to a diving Root at the second slip.

That's how the duo completed a remarkable catch.
