Immediately after that replays shown on the big screen confirmed that it was a legal delivery and as Umesh Yadav and Virat Kohli went and spoke about it to the umpire, he did not revert his decision and asked the bowler to continue with the free hit in spite of knowing that it was a wrong call.

Llong was asked to pay for the damage and he paid Rs 5000 for the damages.
