Wayne Parnell kept bowling the hard lengths in his second over as well. On the fifth delivery of Parnell’s second over KL Rahul shuffled across to play a flick but missed the shot.

The ball hitted the inside part of Rahul’s knee as he seemed in some serious pain. The physio was called on the field as the Indian opener needed some treatment. The physio was accompanied by Rishabh Pant and Yuzvendra Chahal both of whom brought drinks for Indian batters.

While the physio was busy treating Rahul’s injury, Yuzvendra Chahal jokingly tried to hit the on-field Umpire in the groin and had a light conversation as he made fun with the Umpire.
