0.3

Theron to van der Dussen, no run

0.4

Theron to van der Dussen, no run, much better line, van der Dussen plays at it and it whistles past the outside edge

0.5

Theron to van der Dussen, FOUR, too full and van der Dussen just has to help it onto the leg side. Very short boundary so no fielders were in with a shout

0.6

1.3

2.5

Theron to Bula, OUT, Theron slows it and Bula is through his shot - another big one - far too early. He skies it and Smuts, running in from cover, takes a good catch

5.2

Gidana to Lubbe, 1 wide, slipping down the leg

5.2

Gidana to Lubbe, 1 run, a little bit wide and Lubbe cuts, immediately setting off for a single. Backward point puts in a diving save and there is a moment's hesitation from the batsman, but ultimately only a moment and they complete the single

5.3

Gidana to van der Dussen, no run, van der Dussen plays forward and there is a bit of a bat-pad sound. Stifled noise of frustration from Gidana

7.3

Gidana to Lubbe, no run

8.3

8.4

8.6

9.3

Gidana to Lubbe, no run, a play and a miss

9.4

Gidana to Lubbe, 3 runs, driven through the covers. Mid-on runs and fields, but can't get more than a finger to it. It's well-timed and long-off has to come in from the boundary to collect. The throw is excellent, straight onto the stumps, but the batsmen are safely home

9.5

Gidana to van der Dussen, 1 run, pushed onto the leg side

9.6

Gidana to Lubbe, 1 leg bye

11.6

Dolley to Pretorius, no run

Meyer to Klein, 1 run

19.2

Meyer to van den Bergh, no run
