W
Cummins to Roston Chase, out Lbw!! Roston Chase has been trapped in front but he reviews straightaway! Umpire Richard Kettleborough had no hesitation to rule it out. Was a back of a length delivery outside off and it shaped in sharply and also kept a bit low, Roston Chase was caught in the crease as he tried to keep it out but seemed to have been beaten on the inside edge as the ball rapped him on the back pad. Is there an inside edge though? The third umpire is having a look at a few replays as the ball is close to the bat. He is asking to take it frame by frame. UltraEdge shows a little spike when the ball is next to the bat and there also seems to be a slight deflection. But, the third umpire thinks otherwise and opines that there's a gap between bat and ball. Over to ball-tracking and it reveals three reds - it would have crashed into the top of middle. A gritty knock from the Windies skipper comes to an end. Australia have broken through. Roston Chase lbw b Cummins 44(108) [4s-1 6s-1]

Hazlewood to Roston Chase, 1 run, half-an-appeal for LBW, but there was a thick inside edge - Australia though ponder and they've reviewed, they must reckon that this was pad first. Was the nip-backer and Chase was pressing forward from the crease, did it flick the pad before hitting the pad? There's a deflection for sure and umpire Adrian Holdstock reckons it was indeed bat first. The Australian looks amused as the onfield call stays and they do speak with umpire Richard Kettleborough as they changed ends. They did reckon that there was a spike when the ball brushed the pad - but in reality, everything happened simultaneously. They got one in favour of themselves yesterday, West Indies have got one today
