'Bat Tha Yaar': Rohit Sharma's Reaction Goes Viral As Virat Kohli Walks Off Without Opting For DRS On Day 2 Of IND vs BAN 1st Test

Team India captain Rohit Sharma was visibly baffled as Virat Kohli didn't go for the DRS despite a visible spike on bat on replays as umpire Richard Kettleborough adjudged him out lbw on day 2 of the 1st Test against Bangladesh. A video of the same surfaced on social media as Rohit seemed to be saying in Hindi there was bat as the replays showed too.

The incident occurred in the 20th over of the innings as Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto gave the ball to Mehidy Hasan Miraz to bowl a fifth consecutive over. Kohli had played an exquisite pull shot in the first ball of the over, but the off-spinner bounced back by hitting the 35-year-old's front pad. Kettleborough took his time before raising his finger, while Kohli consulted with Shubman Gill before walking off.

However, replays indicated that the ball had hit the inside edge before striking the pad. Commentator Ravi Shastri was shocked, as was Rohit.

Here's how the fans have reacted to the incident in Chennai:

India in commanding position despite losing Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Virat Kohli:
