After the incident, the on-Field umpire was not sure about his decision. And he took the help of the third umpire where he analyzed the video footage. After a number of video inspection, the 3rd umpire said his decision to the on-field umpire and he has softly signaled it as not-out.
In the first powerplay of the match, Australia has lost all its key batsman and the entire batting department was resting in the pavilion. This was the key point in India’s Victory over the Aussie’s.
In spite of Fanning, excellent knock of 75 in 127 balls which includes 7 fours and 3 sixes. They were unable to chase the target of 234 and they have to settle for a total of 159 in 43.3 overs.
