During the 2nd ODI between India and England in Cuttack, Virat Kohli’s poor form continued as he was dismissed for just 5 runs off 8 balls. India, however, secured a four-wicket victory, sealing the three-match series with a 2-0 lead. Kohli’s dismissal stirred controversy when Adil Rashid’s delivery, which turned sharply, was caught by wicketkeeper Phil Salt. The on-field umpire initially rejected England’s appeal, but captain Jos Buttler opted for a review. Ultra-edge technology detected a faint spike, overturning the decision.
Kohli, visibly shocked, reacted animatedly while watching the replay on the big screen, a moment that went viral. Fans mocked his expression, comparing it to internet memes. While some debated the accuracy of the decision, others speculated that Kohli might not have realized the faint edge. Despite the setback, India celebrated Rohit Sharma’s match-winning century.
