Players were just out in the middle after the tea break and it was just the fourth over of the game after the tea break when an exuberant Bangladesh team players wasted DRS, when they asked an LBW appeal to be referred to the third umpire, even when Kohli had played the delivery with the middle of the bat.
It was the second delivery of the 62nd over of the game from Taijul Islam which he bowled from round the wicket. Kohli bent down to play the ball but the bowler and the fielder thought that it had turned much, to hit Kohli on his pads. They were quick to appeal for it and soon asked the decision to be referred to the third umpire when he on-field umpire did not agree to their appeal.
The replays showed that by no means the ball was hitting Kohli’s pads as he had played it the middle of the bat and it was one of the strange decision by Bangladesh to review it. Here is the video of the incident –
