Jordan Cox c Mohammad Rizwan b Ali Usman

Ali Usman to Jordan Cox, out Caught by Mohammad Rizwan!! Ali Usman looks confident, but Rizwan not too sure. Oh hang on! It has been given out and Cox reviews after a brief chat with Root. Looks like there's contact off the toe-edge. Superb decision from Chris Gaffaney and he was so quick to raise the finger. Fuller and turning away in the channel outside off, Cox should have been forward, but he stood back and poked at the last second. Result? A feather of an outside-edge to the keeper. Replays in and Cox had in fact hit the flap of the pad with his bat while going on the back foot before making contact with the ball. Jordan Cox c Mohammad Rizwan b Ali Usman 73(100) [4s-14]
