OUT! PLUMB! Good length angling into the batter on middle and leg. Devon Conway looks to play this late and run this fine towards the deep third region but misses. The ball sneaks past the bat and clatters onto the back pad. The umpire wastes no time and gives him his marching orders. Devon Conway asks for a review but all reds on the Ball Tracker confirm the on-field decision.
