 In the chase of 147, Pant kept the Indian hopes alive with a majestic half-century, mixing aggression with caution but the star wicketkeeper-batter was declared to be caught ‘bat-pad’ by the third umpire in a controversial decision by the third umpire.


“Controversy! Little grey area once again. Did Pant get bat on that or not?,” De Villiers posted on X. 

“Problem is when the ball passes the bat at exactly the same time a batter hits his pad, snicko will pick up the noise. But how sure are we he hit it? I’ve always worried about this and here it happens at a huge moment in a big Test match. Where’s hotspot?” De Villiers further wrote.

Pant was seen having a word with the onfield umpires before he takes the long walk back to the dressing room after scoring 64 off 57.
