Shreyas Iyer Survives Despite Ball Hitting Stumps, Zing Bails Don't Come Off (Watch Video)
Luck favoured Shreyas Iyer when he a delivery from Ebadot Hossain hit the stumps but bails didn't dislodge properly. Iyer was batt.ing on 77. The incident took place during third session of day one of the first Test.
Shreyas Iyer rode his luck as he survived after being bowled by Ebadot Hossain! Yes, you read that right, bowled! The pacer brought one back to the batsman and after getting a bottom-edge the ball went on to hit the sumps. However, the bails did not came off. Interestingly, a bail was replaced just before the start of the over and it was the same one which wasn't dislodged. Thus handing Iyer a life! Even though the bail was slightly dislodged but it didn't came off and thus the batsman was given not out. For the uninitiated, zing bails are slightly heavier than the normal standard bails.
Lucky Shreyas Iyer!
