The last over of Indian innings, where they needed 15 runs to win, was full of commotion and cricketing rules came under question. Batter Virat Kohli struck the fourth delivery of Mohammad Nawaz’s over for a six and it was ruled a no-ball because of it being waist-height.
The left-arm pacer bowled a wide and remained a free hit.
