The incident happened on the fourth ball of the 13th over as Vijaykumar Vyshak bowled a good length ball to Rahul Tewatia as the batter played it with soft hands towards short cover. Shahrukh Khan, at the non-striker’s end, was off in a flash expecting a run but Tewatia denied any single. Shahrukh was slow to turn around while trying to get back inside his crease, and Kohli was quickly on to the loose ball. He picked up the ball and in one swift motion, threw the ball onto the stumps as the batter was way short of his crease
