Slows it up, wide of off, and fuller. Heinrich Klaasen moves to the leg side to go inside out, but misses as he reaches at it to hit through the off side. Strangely, Klaasen has reviewed it for a Wide not given. A fair delivery called as the ball is passing well within the revised guideline. A review burnt by SRH.
