Following an LBW appeal, Virat Kohli teases umpire Nitin Menon in the 35th over of Australia’s second innings in the Ahmedabad Test. A DRS showed ‘Umpire’s Call’, and the head survived. On the stump mic, Kohli said, “Mai hota toh out hota.” Menon smiled and showed a thumbs-up in response.
Earlier that morning, Ravichandran Ashwin convinced skipper Rohit Sharma to ask for a review against an on-song Travis Head, who was closing in on his half-century in the 35th over when Ravichandran Ashwin suggested the study. The ex-India skipper poked fun at umpire Menon after Rohit failed to overturn his decision and joked that he would have given out if he had been in Menon’s place.
