Mohammad Zahid to Qais Ahmad ,FOUR! It has been given as a boundary. Good decision from the umpire while Jordan stepped onto the ropes. Full delivery on off, Ahmad lofts it over mid off. Jordan at long off tries to stop it but he steps onto the ropes and concedes a boundary.
The third umpire is checking whether it is a boundary or not. If not they will check whether it will be a run out.
