OUT
this is even better. Too good in fact: he has been given but Karthik has reviewed it immediately. Lovely length ball, just outside off, holds its line, there is a sound as it passes his bat. Karthik contends the sound has come from his bat hitting the pad, but the Snicko shows a spike at the exact moment the ball is next to the bat. And it does also hit the pad at around the same time. So the benefit of the doubt has to go to the on-field call
