6.2 to AK Markram, and gone! Caught-behind. Length ball outside off, a bit of movement away, Markram was stuck on the back foot, throws his hands at it in an attempt to push, gets an outside edge and Perera does the rest. 47/1 41.1 to JP Duminy, that's unfortunate as Duminy is strangled down the leg side! An innocuous length ball, sliding down the leg side, Duminy tried to help it along but only managed to glove it to keeper. 259/6
Nuwan Pradeep	10	0	77	2	7.70	29	7	2	1	0
35.5 to HE van der Dussen, short and angled in, pulled off the splice towards deep squareleg and the fielder does brilliantly to come running in and dive forward to send van der Dussen back. 228/5 45.5 to AL Phehlukwayo, quicker short one, angled across, went for the pull again but was hurried for pace and the ball flew off the top edge towards third-man, who came running in and clung on even as he lost a bit if balance. 286/7
Thisara Perera	6	1	31	0	5.16	18	2	1	0	0
Isuru Udana	10	0	42	1	4.20	29	2	0	1	0
31.4 to DA Miller, and that's gone! A brilliant catch by Dimuth at short midwicket. Was short of length outside off, Miller charged down the track and went for the pull but Dimuth threw himself low to his left and grabbed it with both hands. 211/4
Jeevan Mendis	5	0	45	1	9.00	13	5	2	0	0
23.5 to HM Amla, googly and through Amla! Held the length back, it was slower through the air, Amla wanted to go through the covers but didn't pick it. 175/2
Jeffrey Vandersay	2	0	30	0	15.00	3	3	2	0	0
Dhananjaya de Silva	8	0	44	1	5.50	22	5	0	0	0
24.2 to F du Plessis, length on middle, du Plessis skips down the wicket and tries to go over long-on again, gets a leading edge which hangs in the air for a long time, there's nearly a collision but the long-off holds his nerve and catches it comfortably in the end. 175/3

0.2 to MDKJ Perera, and gone! Perera once again throws his hands to a length ball and the extra bounce does the trick, ends up hitting it straight to Miller at cover. 0/1 2.1 to HDRL Thirimanne, almost an action replay of Perera's dismissal. Although this was a touch fuller, Thirimanne looked to drive but failed to keep it down and Miller grabs another catch. 10/2
Kagiso Rabada	7	0	40	1	5.71	25	7	0	0	0
29.3 to FDM Karunaratne, bouncer at 140kph, goes for the pull but picks up Markram at deep square leg with pin-point precision. 170/4

13.1 to BKG Mendis, shuffles across and misses a straight one, the umpire promptly raises his finger! He'd been looking to score through the leg side but this was too full and straight to be walking across, he couldn't get any bat on it and was caught plumb in front. 72/3 35.2 to DM de Silva, slower ball, swings wildly across the line, it was full and straight and knocked the off stumps out once the batsman missed. 199/5 37.5 to BMAJ Mendis, slower ball outside off, swings through the line but too early and gets an outside edge to Miller. 220/6 39.4 to TAM Siriwardana, short one on middle and pulled straight to deep squareleg as Phehlukwayo gets his fourth. 236/8
Imran Tahir	5.3	0	31	1	5.63	12	3	0	1	0
42.3 to RAS Lakmal, a googly around off, beats the bat and hits the batsman on the pads in front of the stumps. Given out but Lakmal wants to review it. It hit him on the back leg, just above the knee roll, right in front of the middle stump. Replays confirm there was no bat involved and it would have hit the bails, umpire's call there, which means Lakmal has to go. 251/10
Dwaine Pretorius	5	0	34	1	6.80	12	4	0	1	0
41.3 to JDF Vandersay, a brilliant catch by Duminy at backward point. Length outside off, goes for the cut but cannot keep it down, Duminy dives forward to take it inches off the ground. 245/9
Tabraiz Shamsi	5	0	37	0	7.40	11	5	0	1	0
Jean-Paul Duminy	3	0	27	1	9.00	5	1	1	4	0
38.6 to AD Mathews, length on off, goes on with the arm again, Mathews skips down the wicket and tries to go over long-on again, gets a leading edge high in the air towards cover where Morris had to turn around and run back but settled under it nice and easy and took it comfortably. 235/7
