29.4	OUT	Starc to Devon Thomas, out Caught by Wade!! Yet another decision that will be spoken about with respect to the UDRS. This was a terrific bouncer from Starc, honing on the throat of Thomas, he does all that he can to get out of the way. HOT-SPOT did not reveal much, there was not much of a noise as the bat went past the outside edge. The 3rd umpire has a look at replays after replays, he then suggests umpire Lloyd to reverse his call. The West Indian dressing room erupts, they cannot believe it. Anway, Starc has a 5 wicket haul again and he is on a hat-trick. Devon Thomas c Wade b Starc 0(1)	165/6
