The incident happened in 40th over when it seemed as if the ball hit Rishabh Pant's pad and sneaked past the leg-stump for a four. As the batsman had opted for DRS, the on-field decision was overturned. The viewers were perplexed to see the umpiring not signalling a four on that occasion. The rule states that, if a batsman is given out leg before, the ball at that moment becomes dead even if the decision is overturned later.
