Rohit Sharma out twice in same over

With Sharma’s outstanding performance in the ongoing Test series, the stakes were high and tensions ran even higher during this controversial event. In the opening ball of the innings, Rohit Sharma escapes controversial dismissal after Australia’s unsuccessful review in 3rd Test against India. A clear outside edge from his bat produced a loud noise, but the umpire wasn’t convinced and Australia chose not to review. However, the replay showed a spike on UltraEdge, proving that Rohit had edged the ball.

On the fourth ball, Starc’s delivery swung back sharply and hit Rohit’s back pad, prompting a loud appeal for LBW, but the umpire remained unmoved. Australia opted not to take a review, and the replays showed that Rohit would have been out if they had.
