Conway’s catch was dropped by Ravindra Jadeja, who was standing at backward point, and Arshdeep missed out on a wicket. However, Arshdeep bounced back immediately. On the very next ball, he bowled Henry Nicholls. While trying to leave a good length ball going outside off stump, it took an inside edge off his bat and hit the stumps directly. Nicholls was out without scoring. 3. Rohit dismissed after getting a reprieve In the fourth over, Rohit Sharma got a reprieve, but he could not capitalize on it. On Foakes’ back-of-a-length delivery, Rohit tried to take a run, the ball carried to wicketkeeper Mitchell Hey, but he missed an easy catch. After this, Rohit also hit a boundary with a drive on the next ball. However, Foakes made a comeback on the last ball of the over.
