The 2nd Test match between hosts Pakistan cricket team and the visiting team England cricket team has taken a extraordinary turn with the match currently hanging in the balance.
After losing 4 wickets before the start of the 4th day’s play, Pakistan cricket produced a stunning comeback until towards the end when the England bowlers took 3 wickets in quick succession.
However, one of those dismissal was a huge question mark as Saud Shakeel was given a controversial caught-behind out. Saud had scored 94 runs and was taken behind the wickets by keeper Ollie Pope. However, the footage showed that it has likely touched the ground, however, the third umpire gave it a out. Twitterati meanwhile raised question over the umpire’s decision.

It was not out, clearly visible the ball is touching the surface, a normal person can tell it’s a not out how come tv umpire can’t see that. @ICC really needs to get the eyesight tested of the umpire.

Another reminder that Pakistan run-chases are not recommended for those with a weak heart or those of a nervous disposition #PAKvENG #Cricket
