Hazlewood to Babar Azam, no run, loud shout for LBW, Hazlewood was celebrating and is surprised as Kettleborough says NO. The Australians want a review. It's a fair delivery, was there an inside edge on that? Is the height an issue? Nothing on HotSpot and Snicko confirms it. It's umpire's call on hitting the wickets, the original call stays. A tight call and Babar could consider himself lucky, the inswinger from Hazlewood, pitched around off and nipped back in sharply, caught Babar in the crease as he played all around it, struck just below the knee-roll and the ball was only clipping the top of leg
