Gary Pratt, Gary Pratt, howzzat? This is for all cricketing fans. How many of you remember Gary Pratt? He never played a game for England but is remembered fondly by many fans of the Ashes and England. Of course, bitterly by Australia as well. The then Aussie captain, Ricky Ponting, had raised the usage of substitutes on the cricketing field and got angered and irritated when Pratt fired a throw from cover to catch Ponting short at the bowler's end, during the 2005 Ashes. Something similar could have happened here. Full, around off, Rory Burns came forward and then went back to play it to the leg side. Now, as is the flow of momentum, Burns went out of the crease and at that very moment, Suryakumar Yadav, the substitute, standing at short leg, stopped the ball to his left. He immediately transferred the ball to his right hand and fired a throw at the striker's end. He missed and every Indian player on the field had his hands over his head. Was Burns caught napping? He does get two overthrows as the ball goes to fine leg. No sir. Replays show that even if Yadav had hit the stumps, Burns would have been home. Surya reacted swiftly but so did Burns as he did not commit the cardinal sin of committing way too much into the run. So he was able to stop and turn back and get his bat back in the crease, before the ball could hit the stumps. Fantastic cricket at the end of the day, giving us more drama!

FOUR! Well played! After that previous boundary, Kohli had stationed a leg slip and moved his fine leg squarer. The intention was to bowl a full ball, angling on the pads. But Haseeb Hameed was upto it and flicked it to the left of leg slip, to the fine leg fence. Kohli though, applauds his bowler for sticking to the plan.

NOT OUT! Drama in the fag end of the day. A length ball, angling around middle and off. Hameed leaned and looked to defend but got beaten on the inside edge and got hit high on the pads. Siraj appealed for LBW but it was not given. Now, Siraj was confident as usual and looked at his skipper for the review. His captain turned towards his slip cordon. He asked Pant, Suryakumar Yadav, Rahane and even Rahul. None of them looked even remotely confident and Surya even shook his head. 'AAGE AAKE KHELA WOH?' asked Kohli. Meaning, 'Did he lunge and play?' Kohli was seemingly indicating that because of that lunge, the ball might have hit him low on the pads. Contrary to everyone's suggestions, Kohli went for the review, purely on his gut instinct. However, Ball Tracker showed the ball to be going over the leg stump. Cannot blame Kohli totally here, one could imagine that lunge from Hameed might have tempted him to think that the ball will hit the wickets. Review lost by India.

EDGED AND FOUR! Uffff! Why is there that gap between the keeper and second slip? You normally see this from Kohli, when he removes his second slip and pushes his first slip fielder a bit wide. That creates a gap between the keeper and that wide first slip. And more often than not, the ball goes right through that gap. It does so here again. Good length ball around off, Haseeb looks to play it inside the line and gets squared up. The ball takes the outside edge.

NOT OUT! It has hit the boot, but then onto the ground! A bit of a drama at The Oval. A tossed up delivery on off, Hameed got a big stride to defend and the ball went to silly point. Now, to the naked eye, it seemed like a normal forward defense. But Jadeja got excited and got the umpires to refer it upstairs, certain that the ball hit the boot and then went to silly point. The umpires got together and referred it upstairs, with the soft signal as not out. And yes, replays confirm that the ball hit the bat, then the boot for sure, but then onto the ground and later, into the hands of the fielder at silly point. The on-field decision stays.
