However, what happened next was little unusual. The visiting team lost both its openers; one to Yadav and the other one to an upset stomach. Matthew Renshaw was forced to leave the field immediately after Warner’s dismissal due to illness. The batsman is unbeaten on 36 from 89 deliveries.

Australia skipper Steve Smith, who came out at no. 3 to replace Warner had no idea about Renshaw’s illness as the batsman complained about an upset stomach and ran towards the dressing room.

Shaun Marsh was forced to come out to bat, forcing Australia to have two new batsmen at the crease.

Former Aussie captain Michael Clarke was dumbfounded at the sight.

"What is going on here? He's retiring ill," Clarke said on commentary. "There's only 15 minutes to lunch. I can't believe Renshaw's retiring. He must be extremely sick with a stomach bug and has to go to the bathroom.
