The dismissal was highly similar to that of Mike Gatting against Shane Warne.
Shane Warne bowled a majestic delivery to get Mike Gatting out on the second day of the first Test of the 1993 Ashes Series at Manchester’s Old Trafford Stadium.
The late-great spinner pitched the ball outside the leg stump, which spun away and it hit the off stump.
Australia completed a 3-0 whitewash of host India in the three-match series with a resounding 190-run win on Tuesday.
