Was a well flighted delivery outside off, Chouhan bowled from well behind the stumps - Sadat saw the flight and was looking to clear the long-off fielder with the lofted drive - but the length isn't full enough, he had to lunge into the shot and holes out to Deepesh, who is standing well in front of the ropes.
