NOT OUT! Litton Das survives as technology comes to his aid! Tim Southee comes from over the wicket and bowls it on a good length, on middle, Litton Das plays a risky shot as he walks across his stumps and look to clip away off his pads. He fails to connect and gets pinged on the front pad. A loud shout and up goes the finger. Litton Das takes the review. Nothing on UltraEdge but guess what? Ball Tracking shows the ball to be going over the stumps. Litton Das breathes a sigh of relief as do the Bangladesh fans!
