Shamar Joseph to Thomas Draca, out Caught by Roston Chase!! A slightly high full-toss and Draca has helped it straight into the hands of Chase at backward point. Having backed away, Draca was looking to use Joseph's pace and steer it backward of square on the off-side, but he's hit it straight into the hands of backward point - Chase didn't need to move. They check for the height and it's a fair delivery. Lots of confusion as the 3rd umpire waited for the calculations, that leaves Draca dazed and he thinks he's been called back, but only to be stopped and finally sent back. OUT is the call as the calculator deems it's under his waist. Thomas Draca c Roston Chase b Shamar Joseph 5(3) [4s-1]
