Steyn to Johnson,
1 run,
he's caught it! Oh no it's six! Maybe it's neither! Johnson hooks a bouncer from Steyn, Ntini back-pedals at fine leg to get into position, he takes the catch but the momentum is taking him over the line, he manages to release the ball just before he goes over the rope, he wasn't in control of his body so it's not out, but I think that's a daft rule
