Roston Chase to Jos Buttler, OUT! LBW! A huge confident appeal for LBW and up goes the finger! Jos Buttler however challenges the on-field decision and sends it upstairs. Roston Chase fires in a knee-length full toss, right in front of the stumps, Jos Buttler charges down the wicket and tries to flick it away but his bat hits his pad first in the process, and the ball thuds his front pad. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and the Ball Tracking confirms that the Impact is in the line of the stumps and the ball is hitting the stumps. The original on-field decision stands and Jos Buttler departs. A huge wicket for the West Indies.

Can the West Indies build on this breakthrough?
