OUT! Caught. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Pat Cummins to Lahiru Thirimanne. Seaming away length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by Paine. A lot happening out in the middle. Australia celebrate Cummins' fifth wicket but Thirimanne has reviewed. This is where it gets interesting. HotSpot shows nothing while Snicko has a faint mark but after the ball has passed the bat. According to the third umpire he has conclusive evidence that Thirimanne has hit it. The Sri Lankan doesn't look happy but the crowd are over the moon for Cummins for his five-for on Australia day.
