Subrayen to Masood, out Lbw!! Masood has been trapped in front but he takes the review! That looked adjacent to the naked eye. Was on a length around off and it came in with the arm, Masood lunged to keep it out but got beaten on the inside edge to get struck in front. Time for the replays. UltraEdge shows a gap between bat and ball. The ball is close to the bat and pad but it missed the inside edge and struck him on the pads first. Over to ball-tracking and it reveals three reds. It would have gone on to crash into the leg-stump. A good knock from Masood nonetheless. Is this the opening South Africa needed? Masood lbw b Subrayen 76(147) [4s-9 6s-1]
