Brian Chari 43(82)
25.4
T Islam to Chari, out Lbw!! LBW Appeal. Big. Long. Strained. That's what umpire Dharmasena needed to be convinced. And the moment his finger goes up, Chari goes up in challenge. He shuffled well across his stumps in looking to paddle-scoop, but the ball just kept coming in with the arm, went past the bat and struck the front pad which is well in line with off. That's all that could have been dodgy here. After that, it was always three reds. Chari can't believe what he's done, smashes himself with his bat as he walks off. Chari lbw b T Islam 43(82) [4s-3 6s-1]
