When it appeared like MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli could cruise India past the winning line again, Kohli edged one off Richardson. The fast bowler must consider himself special, as for the third time in as many games, Jhye had Kohli’s number. This time, the right-hander had gone for the drive but didn’t find the middle of the bat. As a result, he edged one and got out.
