Mohammad Rizwan lofted a high full-toss from Boult’s final delivery of the 17th over towards the deep point, where Phillips was comfortably situated. The Kiwi fielder made a good catch after making some running.

But Boult questioned whether the leg umpire could declare the pitch a no-ball because of its height. In order to finish Rizwan’s run-out, the left-arm bowler promptly instructed Phillips to toss the ball his way, and Phillips complied.

The opener first had no knowledge of the entire scenario, and by the time he did, he had already been caught far from the non-strikers’ end. However, TV replays revealed that the ball was below Rizwan’s waist, therefore he was ruled to have already been caught.
