Kuldeep Yadav to Shahidi, no run, shout for a catch at the wicket / was it for LBW? No one seemed sure, Richard Illingworth shook his head, but India have reviewed. Was pushed through outside off and Hashmatullah didn't read the googly, offered no shot as he looked to let it go. Did it brush the pad on its way to Rishabh Pant? Did it flick the glove? It's for LBW as Chris Gaffaney confirms. Hashmatullah didn't read the ball one bit, took his eyes off as he looked to let it go. The ball has struck him just below the arm-guard, the impact didn't matter, but the ball was bouncing over the top of middle.
