Rashid Khan to Banton, OUT

That looks close! Full and overpitched ball on the stumps, Banton moves across and plays the paddle sweep, hits the side of the front pad and races away to the ropes. Loud appeal, but the umpire is not interested. Billings opts to review. That seems plumb to me, unless there's an edge off the bat. Ultra Edge confirmed no bat is involved. All three reds and striking middle-leg. Banton has to depart.
