One umpiring call can change the entire context of a Test match, which is why reviews in red-ball cricket are such potent weapons in the hand of captains. Babar Azam can often be blamed for wasting them all too easily but a sharp independent call from the skipper on Monday helped dismiss Tom Latham.
Fans enjoy it whenever a bowler, with scorching pace, rattles a batter, and the instance becomes even more beautiful when reverse swing comes into play. Haris Rauf, on his Test debut at his home ground Rawalpindi, produced the exact same combination out of nowhere to dismiss a well-set Zak Crawley.
