Chasing 172 for victory, PBSK openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh added 26 runs. Digvesh Rathi conceded a four to Priyansh on the first ball of the third over. However, Digvesh dismissed him just three balls later. Following the wicket, Rathi gave a "Notebook celebration" gesture to send him off.
"I can understand the celebration if the wicket comes after the batsman hits a boundary or a six in the previous ball. As a bowler, you've got six deliveries," Gavaskar said (via Hindustan Times).
