Botha to Shah,
1 run,
dabbed out to extra cover - but who's the fielder? Gibbs! In comes the throw and it's a direct hit! Replays are horribly inconclusive - it's impossible to give him out on that evidence but it's yet further proof just how fired-up South Africa are. They're in screaming form tonight

a beamer pulled to deep square leg, but not given as no-ball. Erm - that was neck-high, or certainly above shoulder. Odd decision

quicker - much quicker and he beats the attempted cut

Botha to Swann,
OUT,
er, gone, I think. Tried to smite him over midwicket and got a leading edge to short third man. Barely a celebration; it's all too facile for South Africa
