After Virat Kohli: After Virat Kohli survived a caught dismissal on the first ball he faced in the fifth Test against Australia, senior batter Steve Smith said he had his hand underneath the ball in the moment which has divided opinions in the cricketing world.
At the Sydney Cricket Ground, shortly after Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed by Scott Boland, the seamer almost got his second wicket on the trot when he found Kohli's outside edge, and Smith dived across to his right at second slip to take the catch.
It seemed like Smith had got his fingers underneath the ball, but replays showed the ball flicked the grass on the ground, while scooping the ball to Marnus Labuschagne at gully, something which TV umpire Joel Wilson spotted while ruling Kohli not out after seeing various camera angles.
