This is the sunnah. When you stand up from the first tashahud to the third Rakah, you raise your hands for takbeer.

I’ve noticed a brother when in his second rak’ah, just before he gets up to continue reading his 3rd rak’ah, he raises his hands the same way as we would with takbirat al-ihram, going into rukooh, and after saying “sami’ Allah liman hamidah”. Is this permissible? I’ve never seen anyone raise their hands at this position.
