SYDNEY:
They were well in the middle of wild celebrations when umpire Sharfuddoula Saikat consulted fellow on-field official Michael Gough, and they decided to send it to the third umpire.
The footage reviewed by Joel Wilson was far from conclusive and he finally ruled that the India great was not out. Australia couldn't believe it but they had no choice but to agree with the ruling.
"He's got his fingers [under it], but like it's rolled onto the ground. I have that ball just touching the ground," said Wilson.
Kohli accepted the second life gleefully and seemed to slowly slot into gear. In the initial part of his game, he left the ball outside the off-stump alone. It has been a particular bugbear of his and Kohli has spoken about the need to be more disciplined.
And as always, he started off looking good. According to CricViz, he left almost 50% of the deliveries outside the off stump early on in his innings. Kohli scored 7 off 30 balls on that line but he was clearly being very careful.
