To cap off a bizarre passage of play, Virat Kohli was run out after attempting a non-existent single in the final minutes of the opening day of the India-New Zealand Mumbai Test.
India's top order capitulated dramatically in the dying stages of the first day: Yashasvi Jaiswal's missed reverse sweep was followed by nightwatchman Mohammed Siraj's plumb lbw (and a burnt review). Virat Kohli came out to face the hat-trick ball, and survived.
With Ajaz Patel's double-wicket maiden rattling India, Rachin Ravindra was introduced into the attack, ahead of Ish Sodhi.
Kohli punished the second ball, a repeat delivery after a no-ball, for four, getting off the mark off a full-toss.
The very next ball, disaster struck.
He turned a full delivery towards mid-on, and charged out for a single. However, he could not beat Matt Henry's quick pick-up and throw, diving to make his ground but failing to match the direct hit. He lay on the ground as New Zealand celebrated, the Wankhede crowd silenced, and India losing three wickets in the space of eight balls.
