    Drama after getting out – Stokes, Kohli, Smith and others

    In the 1981 Melbourne Test, when Gavaskar was given out lbw, he took Chauhan off with him; luckily the tour manager met them at the gate and sent Chauhan back out again. (India eventually won by bowling Australia out for 83). Gavaskar said afterwards he was unhappy with the decision but took...
