Latham does review it but UltraEdge shows there's no bat involved and Ball Tracker comes up with three reds. The Kiwi skipper departs early yet again and New Zealand right on the back foot now.

Ravichandran Ashwin to Will Young, OUT! That is quite clearly off the glove! Kohli knew that and hence, he just reviewed it immediately. Young now walks back. That is a beauty of a delivery. Turn, bounce, just unplayable. This lands outside off, Young goes back to block, it turns back in sharply and also there is extra bounce. Goes off something to the fielder at short leg.

Jayant Yadav to William Somerville, OUT! CAUGHT! Cleanly done in the end. Jayant Yadav is having a happy Monday morning. His off spinners are doing the damage.

The two umpires get together and refer it upstairs. The soft signal is out and it will remain out as the replays find that Mayank has done everything correct.
