Fans Slam Third Umpire After Virat Kohli Survives Similar DRS Leg-Before Call During 2nd Test vs New Zealand Sparks Controversy | SEE POSTS

Mumbai: On the opening day of the second Test, Virat Kohli found himself on the wrong side of the DRS when a close leg-before call – that looked 50:50 went against the India captain. On the third day of the Wankhede Test, history almost repeated itself -the only difference – the DRS favoured Kohli on this occasion. And this poor standard of umpiring has irked the fans, who are now slamming the third umpire, which happens to be Virender Sharma.

Ajaz Patel, who bagged all 10 wickets in the first innings, was the bowler who once again trapped Kohli in front, playing a similar kind of shot.
