Ok, let me tell you 1 thing, even we assume bat, ball & pad were in contact together.

Then, LBW rule states that "even if ball makes contact with bat, pad together, this shall be considered as ball touched bat first."

Virat Kohli could not open his account and was lbw off the ball of Ajaz Patel. However, against the decision of the umpire, the Indian captain decided to take DRS, but the review revealed that the ball collided with the bat and the ball at the same time, due to which the third umpire backed the decision of the on-field umpire and dismissed Kohli. relaxed me.
After this, the fans appeared very angry with this decision of the umpire on social media.
