Shaheen Afridi to Shanaka, out Bowled!! And he's cleaned up next ball. Who needs the third ump when you can clean up the stumps like that. Look at Shaheen Afridi roar, celebrate and turn back at the third ump to ask is that good enough for you? Fakhar appeals towards the TV ump and then Shaheen put his arms up as well. Another slower delivery, Shanaka plays a wild slog and misses to see the leg stump light up. Shanaka b Shaheen Afridi 2(7)

Shaheen Afridi to Shanaka, no run, in the airrr, flying Fakhar takes a stunner. Slower delivery on the stumps. Shanaka looks to flick and gets a leading edge that flies towards short third man. It was clearing the infield but Fakhar ran back and timed his jump perfectly to pouch it safely with both hands. Looks clean but the third ump wants to check if the ball was in contact witht he grass. And shockingly, the ump feels the ball was in touch with the ground when Fakhar finished the catch. That definitely was a clean catch and Fakhar ensured only the wrists were in touching the ground and not the ball. These cameras, they can be very tricky and Pakistan looked stunned with the decision. Fakhar isn't happy
