India were back to their ruthless best in home conditions as they dominated Day 2 of the first Test against Bangladesh in Chennai on Friday, September 20, 2024.
However, Virat Kohli's dismissal was a major talking point on the second day.
Kohli suffered his second failure of the match, dismissed leg before wicket by off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz for 17.
It was the unusual manner of his dismissal which triggered a debate.
Kohli missed the flick off a flighted delivery from Mehidy as he was beaten by the turn and struck in front to be ruled out by umpire Richard Kettleborough.
Surprisingly, he walked off without taking the review. He just consulted his younger partner as to whether the ball struck him in line who nodded in agreement before Kohli headed back to the dressing room.
But shockingly, UltraEdge showed a spike when the ball passed the bat before it struck the pads, clearly indicating that there was an inside edge.
If only Kohli had taken the DRS, the LBW decision would have been overturned, leaving spectators stunned.
Captain Rohit Sharma looked bemused why his senior colleague didn't take the review when India had all three DRS reviews remaining.
India missed out on a wicket in the Bangladesh innings when Rohit failed to take the review after Zakir Hussain was struck in line but was given not out.
