Deepak Chahar and Rishabh Pant have been trolled by fans for forcing Virat Kohli to take DRS in the 6th over of South Africa's inning in the 3rd T20I. Proteas batsman Reeza Hendricks was beaten by the knuckleball bowled by Deepak Chahar. When the ball hit his pads, Team India stood up for the strong appeal to convince the umpire. The pace bowler Chahar was so much sure of the dismissal that he forced his skipper Kohli to take the review. It is said that wicket-keepers gets the best angle of where the ball gets pitched and whether it hit the stump or not. Kohli took the review only to find out that the ball had easily missed the leg stump. Pant did not intervene in the DRS decision and Chahar should know in which direction his ball was travelling.

MS Dhoni is often considered as the best person behind the stump for DRS decision. MSD hardly commits any mistake during DRS decision. Speaking about Pant, he has failed to impress with his bat for quite a long time and he even lacks skills which the wicket-keeper possess to assist bowlers and captain of the team. Deepak Chahar was getting good turn and the seam movement on the pitch yesterday, however, he flowed with the emotion and forced his skipper to take a wrong DRS.

Deepak Chahar Should Know About His Delivery
Deepak Chahar has no idea about where his own delivery is heading. Ridiculously forcing Kohli to take the review. And Pant's role in this whole thing is more confusing as he has the best idea of the ball's direction among the fielders#INDvSA
