Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,
1 run,
and a googly now, don't think Dwayne Bravo picked it as he looked to defend off the front foot. Single through the leg side
|

Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,
no run,
Bravo leans out and defends as Tahir decieves him in the air. He's looking good here.
|
26.5 |
Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,
no run,
Tahir's dropped a return chance! Again, sucks Bravo into the drive with a tossed-up delivery, again gets it to drop on him much further than he expected. Bravo was too far into the drive to hold back and chipped it back down the track, but Tahir's follow through takes him to the off side at an angle. He tried to stop and pluck it with his right hand as he tumbled, but it did not stick.

Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,

Bravo is at sea at the moment, leans out and somehow gets bat on it as he looks to defend down the track

27.6 |
Steyn to DJ Bravo,
no run,
ends the over with a full sucker delivery at 145.6 kph, it is almost too fast to suck Bravo in. He only manages to defend down the track

Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,
no run,
he jumps out in hope, can't get to the pitch and feebly poked it back down the track. Almost another return catch, but so badly timed that it did not carry.

29.6 |
Peterson to DJ Bravo,
1 leg bye,
ends the over with another huge lbw appeal, this time it is turned down. Speared in on leg and straightening, but I doubt itwas doing enough to hit the stumps as Bravo looked to work it to the leg side. Runs off the pad towards square leg

Imran Tahir to DJ Bravo,
SIX,
Bravo is cornered, and he bares his fangs. A rare poor delivery from Tahir, dropped halfway down the track and sitting up like a lollypop. Bravo would up and brutalised it over midwicket for a six.

Botha to DJ Bravo,
SIX,
Bravo! He's had his problems against spin, but in between that he's produced two pretty good shots. This time he dances down the track early, Botha obliges by tossing it up on middle and leg, and he lofts it with a straight bat over midwicket. He wasn't entirely to the pitch, but he went through with the shot and made good enough connection to clear the short boundary.
