Just a ball before, Rahul had hit a four to reach 199. Perhaps the nervousness crept into the right-handers' mind which forced him to play a ball going outside the off-stumps.

Rahul's wicket stunned the crowd as well as the Indian dressing room that seemed relaxed until that point and preparing to cheer him up.

With this innings, Lokesh Rahul, thus, became the ninth batsman in the history of Test cricket to be dismissed at 199 and joined an unwanted league of batsmen.

He, thus, became only the second Indian batsman after Mohammad Azharuddin to be dismissed at 199.

Rahul joined the group of Mudassar Nazar, Mohammad Azharuddin and Steve Smith to fell one short of the double ton.
