Ravi Bishnoi to Liam Livingstone
OUT! PLUMB! Ravi Bishnoi has yet another wicket and he gets rid of the dangerous Liam Livingstone! He bowls another googly on a fuller length and angled into the stumps. Liam Livingstone looks to hit through the line into the leg side but misses and gets hit flush on the back leg. Ravi Bishnoi goes up in appeal and the umpire raises his finger. This looks pretty straight but Liam Livingstone decides to review it. UltraEdge shows there is no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows this is hitting the middle of middle stump. Punjab lose their fourth wicket and are well behind the eight ball here.
