South Africa skipper Dean Elgar was not pleased with a DRS decision involving his Indian counterpart Virat Kohli on Day 1 of the third Test in Cape Town.
The incident took place during the 52nd over of India’s first innings. The Proteas players made a huge caught-behind appeal against Kohli off Duanne Oliver's ball, which was drifting down the leg stump.
Wicketkeeper Kyle Verreynne was pretty and asked captain Elgar to opt for the review. The South African players got very excited after seeing a tiny spike when the ball went past the bat, but the slow-mo replays confirmed that there was a clear gap between bat and ball.
Soon after the decision, both the captains were seen having a chat some moments later Elgar was seen shaking his head in disappointment.
Here’s the video:
Coming to the match, Virat Kohli completed his half-century in the third session. He had come to the crease when the visitors were struggling at 33/2 in the first session. Thanks to his fifty, Team India were on 172/5 after 61 overs.
