WPaul Stirling lbw b AM Ghazanfar
AM Ghazanfar to Paul Stirling, out Lbw!! Gone, that's plumb! This is the arm ball that skids in and Paul Stirling will have to walk back. The right-hander plays down the wrong line and is pinned on the pads, right in front of the stumps. The umpire is confident and raises his finger without hesitation. That would have crashed into middle and leg. It has taken the spinner just three balls to make an impact! Paul Stirling lbw b AM Ghazanfar 27(25) [4s-3 6s-2]
