Ravindra Jadeja to Sarfaraz Khan, out Lbw!! Sarfaraz Khan has been adjudged lbw. He has a chat with Kartik Sharma and reviews. 89.3kph, a bit slower from Jadeja and Sarfaraz gets low to play a premeditated sweep shot. He gets really low and fails to make contact. Gets hit around the right arm - just below the shoulder. UltraEdge confirms no bat. Over to ball-tracking and it's three reds! Jadeja strikes with his second ball and he's removed Sarfaraz who was looking to be aggressive. It was bowled slower. The ball-tracking, however, predicted the ball go on straight. CSK have now lost half their side. Sarfaraz Khan lbw b Ravindra Jadeja 17(12) [4s-2 6s-1]
