4.1 to Azmatullah Omarzai, what a start! Angled approach, speared in at the pads, hits the seam and holds its line, Omarzai is committed to the leg-glance, the ball thuds into the closed face of his blade, deflects to the keeper, and DK rolls back the years with a full-stretch leap to his right! The ball actually bobbled out of his right glove, but nestled back in. 31/1 | ||||||||||

12.2 to RR Hendricks, ping, clean past the outside edge! Mujeeb's carrom-ball sticks in the pitch from over the wicket, grips and skids as Hendricks closes a bamboozled face, and he loses his off stump!. 90/2 16.5 to D Brevis, splats the stumps! Mujeeb's angle gets the better of Brevis' intentions, out of the front of the hand, grips just enough to straighten past the outside edge, and smash into middle and off. 124/4 | ||||||||||

5.5 to JE Root, picks out short midwicket! Boult gets Root, and Ingram makes amends after his horror drop in the first over. Another knuckleball. Root loses his shape again looking to club leg-side, and it skews off the toe to present a simple catching chance. Vital wicket for MICT. 50/1 | ||||||||||

12.4 to M Van Buuren, nicks him off! Full legbreak, van Buuren pushes tentatively at it and can only snick it through to Esterhuzien. He takes an excellent catch after a significant deflection off the outside edge, and Rashid breaks the 51-run stand. 101/2 | ||||||||||
