WATCH: Rishabh Pant and Rohit Sharma goof up DRS thrice in Yuzvendra Chahal’s over

Rishabh Pant and Rohit Sharma goof up DRS: Twitterati found faults with the Indian captain and wicket-keeper.

During the first T20I of the ongoing Bangladesh’s tour of India in Delhi, India wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant and captain Rohit Sharma were at the wrong side of opting for DRS not once but thrice in a Yuzvendra Chahal over.

It all happened during the 10th over of the Bangladeshi innings when Chahal beat Bangladesh wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim. In what wasn’t the best of appeals from the Indian players, the umpire didn’t show much interest either.

However, replays confirmed that the ball pitched in line and would have gone on to hit the stumps. The sight of the ball pitching on middle-leg and then turning away to hit Rahim’s pad was witnessed on the following delivery as well.

With the Indian players not appealing again, it went against them as replays once again showed three reds. With the wicket-keeper’s call being a vital one, Pant not aiding his captain at all saw him getting criticized on social media platform Twitter.

To add fuel to the fire, Pant convinced Sharma to opt for a review caught behind as Chahal had beaten Bangladesh opening batsman Soumya Sarkar this time round. With the batsman surviving the appeal this time, Pant and Sharma goofed up the DRS thrice in one over.

After Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah won the toss and chose to field, the hosts scored 148/6 in their allotted quota of 20 overs. Having scored 41 (42) with the help of three fours and a six, opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan was the pick of the Indian batsmen.
