After missing the Kanpur Test, Virat Kohli returned to the XI for the game in Mumbai. Since everyone was expecting him to score a lot of runs, it was a disappointment when he was out very soon. India also came into a difficult situation due to that wicket.

However, Virat soon reviewed the decision. On replays, it was seen that the ball was hitting the pad and the bat at the same time. Although as per law, this has to be given not out, the third umpire mentioned that there was no conclusive evidence to overturn the onfield decision and hence, Virat Kohli had to walk back to the pavilion.
