Shaheen Afridi to Kamindu Mendis, out Lbw!! Oh! That was close. Matter of millimeters to umpire's call and hitting. But it is a massive wicket for Pakistan with the set batter walking back with 8 balls still remaining. Full credit to Shaheen. He nails the yorker and beats Mendis for pace, the bat does not come down in time to keep it out and the ball strikes him low on the pad. The impact was around leg-stump and ball-tracking showed it to be hitting. Third wicket for Shaheen and he's been superb today.. Kamindu Mendis lbw b Shaheen Afridi 50(44) [4s-3 6s-2]
