Watch: Bollywood Actress Anushka Sharma Breathes A Sigh Of Relief As Virat Kohli Survives Huge DRS Call
Team India got a dream start that almost turned into a nightmare as star batter Virat Kohli survived a big DRS call in their Cricket World Cup semi-final match against New Zealand on Wednesday. This comes after India captain Rohit Sharma got his team off to a quickfire start, having opted to bat first at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Rohit smashed four sixes and as many fours before being dismissed on 47 of 29 balls. However, a couple of balls later, Kohli survived a big LBW call.
Southee, who had gotten the better of Rohit, bowled a short-off-length ball to Kohli, who nipped back in sharply, hitting the latter on his pad.
The captain of New Zealand, Kane Williamson, decided to take the DRS after the umpire gave Kohli not out. The Kiwis lost the review as the replays showed that there was a big inside edge before the ball hit the pad.

The wife of Kohli Anushka, who is in the stands to support the team, took a sigh of relief as the decision went in the favor of the former India captain.
