Kuldeep Yadav to Haider Ali, out Caught by Samson!! Appeal for LBW

given and UAE don't have any reviews left. Oh it's been given caught actually. There was a deflection but it didn't look like bat either. Impact was definitely outside off stump to negate LBW and we need more replays if the batter actually got an edge on that. Haider tried to defend this googly, ball brushed the pad and went to the keeper.

Shivam Dube to Junaid Siddique, no run

Short delivery, Siddique backs away to pull and misses. The batter points to the towel that's come off the bowler as he was running it to bowl. Hang on, there's a third ump referral from square leg. Oh dear, Siddique could be out here. He was busy pointing at the towel but he forgot to get back inside the crease. Sanju was so smart in spotting that underarmed a direct-hit. OUT flashes on the screen but looks like because the batter was put off by the towel

Simranjeet tried the sweep and missed. Impact was in line with middle and off but the batter was a long way forward from the crease. Question was whether it did too much.

so the champion bowler pushed him back with bumpers. Sharafu managed to get a four off the last ball and now when Bumrah gets the chance to bowl to him this over he nails the yorker. Sharafu tried to dig it out, the unique angle, the pace meant he only saw his off stump flattened on the ground. Entertaining stay ends.
