Even the TV production team didn't pick up the softest graze of the ball against Will Young's bat in New Zealand's first innings in Pune. Rishabh Pant held onto the catch behind the stumps but it was Sarfaraz Khan, fielding at backward short leg, who convinced India's captain Rohit Sharma to review the not-out decision.

Well, the celebration seems to really have caught the imagination of cricketers. When Faf Du Plessis lifted the CPL trophy for the St Lucia Kings for the first time, this is the celebration he decided to go with.

Andrew Flintoff will resume his TV career in December when he hosts a one-off Christmas special of the iconic UK quiz show, Bullseye.
The darts-themed show was a cult hit in the 1980s, pitting three pairs of contestants against one another, each team with a specialist in general knowledge and the other with an ability at the dartboard.
Fronted by the comedian Jim Bowen, the show was especially memorable for its range of kitsch prizes, from beer tankards to automatic tea-makers and "his and hers" watches, all the way through to "Bully's Special Prize" - usually a small car, caravan or speedboat, as revealed by the eponymous cartoon bull who doubled as the programme's mascot.
