Mitchell Santner to Kusal Mendis
3:30 PMLBW!. No Run. That's gone!!! Was a flighted ball on middle, looks to sweep it away but fails to get any connection on it, clips his pad right in front of the stumps and it was an easy decision for the umpire to deem it to be Out, Mendis does not take the review and he walks back to the pavilion.
