Variants:
(1) A2 controls the ball with one hand and pushes it to the floor, then catches it with both hands.
(2) the pass is high, so A2 jumps and knocks the ball down and then recovers it with both hands.

Situation 1, I would consider this to be the dribble (assuming he pushed the ball to the floor intentionally.)
Variation 1, Player has dribbled.
Variation 2, player has not dribbled. He did not control the ball until he touched it with both hands.
