Jack Leach to Saim Ayub
OUT! LBW! Bowls it on leg, Saim Ayub looks to block it but gets a blow on his pads. A loud appeal but the finger stays down. Ben Stokes goes upstairs again. Ultra Edge shows a flat line and Ball shows three reds. The onfield decision is changed to OUT! This won't change much though as Pakistan just need a mere 22 to win.
