He said, “I will proudly say that Virat Kohli was not out. If there is such a rule then it should be changed. There should be rules which are in the interest of the game. This was a beamer ball and if any bowler bowls such a ball, he apologises. However, when the ball hit the bat, it was one and a half or two feet above the waist and I think the rules should be changed. A single wicket spoiled the complexion of the match. He was completely not out.”
