However, the Indian fans believe that there might have been foul-play regarding KL Rahul's dismissal. The opener was cleaned up by pacer Shaheen Afridi for a mere three in the third over. Nevertheless, some fans have pointed out through television replays the Afridi had possibly overstepped, which should have been a no-ball, resulting in a free-hit.
