Mustafizur Rahman to Steven Smith
Fuller one in middle, Steven Smith pushes this straight back towards the stumps at the non-striking end. Mitchell Marsh was ready to walk back but the technology suggested that the ball bounced above the shoe of Mustafizur Rahman and did not make any sort of contact with the bowler before hitting the stumps. Mitchell Marsh survives.
