Full toss, six; full toss, out

Despite having five bowlers at his disposal, Faf du Plessis chose to give part-timer JP Duminy an over. In the PowerPlay. He may as well have placed a dartboard on the deep midwicket boundary. Aaron Finch found the bullseye not once, not twice, but three times off the first three balls Duminy bowled. The first two were not particularly bad deliveries, perhaps a touch too short, but Finch was in fearsome form and sent them both over the boundary. The third was a filthy full toss and got everything it deserved.

Smartly, Duminy was taken off after that over and David Wiese brought on with immediate success. He went at David Warner from over the wicket and held his length back. Warner steered hard but straight to backward point where Duminy was stationed. He took a good catch, low down to earn some redemption albeit not against the man who took him on.

As if Duminy wasn't feeling bad enough, the next wicket South Africa got was with the same delivery Finch had so disdainfully dismissed when he bowled it. Imran Tahir started with a full toss and Finch went on the attack. But he did not get as much on the shot as he may have hoped and Kagiso Rabada was on hand to take a simple catch.

Players risk injury with almost every move they make on a cricket field but spectators don't expect the same. Unfortunately for a young man in the grandstand, that's exactly what he got when Mitchell Marsh decided it was time to attack. Marsh hit Morris to deep square leg where the ball ricocheted off the bar that separates the stands from the field, evaded the outstretched hand of another fan trying to catch it and hit the victim flush on the left eye as he moved away. He was immediately taken care of and spotted a few minutes later with an ice pack and a very swollen left cheek that will no doubt turn blue by morning.

What can be better than removing AB de Villiers early? If you're a bowler, nothing. That's why Nathan Coulter-Nile was cock-a-hoop when he found swing immediately, caught de Villiers off-guard, drew an uncertain poke and the edge and Peter Nevill pouched it. De Villiers had never been dismissed for a golden duck in T20Is cricket before which made it all the more special for Australia.

Nevill, who was make his T20I debut, said his primary job was to catch the ball and keep well and that is exactly what he did. After taking the catch that removed de Villiers, he reacted with lightning speed to run out du Plessis and derail South Africa's chase. Du Plessis was keen on a quick single after David Miller, facing his first ball, tapped it down behind square. Nevill was faster than du Plessis, retrieved the ball and under-armed it onto stumps to find du Plessis short of ground and justify the decision to pick a specialist gloveman.
