Now Rathi’s catch has become the root of controversy because in the replays it seemed that his foot slightly touched the boundary. The matter was a bit confusing so the help of the third umpire was taken. After looking at it from many angles, the third umpire gave it out, but on seeing it several times it seemed that Rathi’s foot had slightly touched the boundary.
