On the first ball of the fifth over, the left-hander's head fell over to the off-stump and was hit on the pad. However, the umpire thought that the ball had pitched outside the leg-stump. The fielding team also felt the same and didn't feel like taking a risk in the form of a review so early in the game. However, the hawk-eye said that the ball was pitched in line.

Apart from that, the White Kookaburra had missed the bat as well. After watching the replay, the India skipper Rohit Sharma had a sheepish smile.

Meanwhile, in this game, the two-time winners have managed to make a comeback. After Das (66) and Hasan (51), the other batters have failed to apply themselves.
