Axar to Nitish Rana, no run, this has pitched outside the leg-stump, Nitish Rana turns around and attempts a reverse-hit, misses, loud appeal for LBW is turned down and DC don't review. Hang on - ball-tracking is in and since Rana turned around, the impact is outside off and it's three reds for a right-hander. So had DC reviewed, Rana was gone, they have missed one here and now they see this on the big screen, KL and Axar don't look happy
