17.3 to T Stubbs, taken at deep-backward square leg!! Mills is pumped up. He bowled it on the shorter side around leg, and Stubbs went for the whip. Just that the length seemed too short for that shot; maybe a proper pull would have worked, but who knows? The ball ended up being mistimed, and hardly made its way towards the shorter boundary on the ground, before Parsons slid to complete the catch. 171/4 19.3 to J Hermann, got him!! It was swatted really high, but not powerfully enough to even cleat the shorter boundary at deep point. Mills bowls it short and on pace, as the ball rose over Hermann's head around off. He went attacking at it, but ended up skying it off the higher side of the bat. A useful cameo ends for SEC. 184/5 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 35 | 1 | 8.75 | 9 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 | |
1.5 to JM Bairstow, chopped on!! Bairstow wasn't entirely forward in looking to jab at that, and ended up getting a bottom edge. Ngidi bowled it on a length, and around sixth stump. It was on a scrambled seam, and as Bairstow went to poke at it, I think the ball came on much slower to him than he expected. Early wicket for PC as Ngidi strikes in his first over. 18/1 | ||||||||||

14.1 to MP Breetzke, bowled him!! Breetzke plays all around the ball. He never gets to the pitch of it, and in looking to flick it without any foot movement, he's cleaned up. Dipping on to him, the ball is quite full on off. Breetzke plays the flick a bit too early - and maybe the length was too full for that shot - and is beaten, as the ball strikes the base of off stump. 142/3 | ||||||||||

13.3 to Q de Kock, stumped!! Hope had a lot of time before whipping the bails off, and yet it almost seemed like he took a while before doing that. De Kock was down the track early, and Parsons slowed it down to bowl on a short of a length outside leg. De Kock looked to swing but missed, and Hope collected the ball low before getting de Kock stumped. 134/2 | ||||||||||

0.6 to B Parsons, gone!! Caught behind. Jansen almost seems to tell de Kock that the plan worked. He bowled it short, and got the ball to shape in and finish on leg. The ball rose towards Parsons' throat, and as he looked to pull, he gloved it behind to de Kock, who moved to his right to collect it. With Jansen's height and with these pitches generally having more bounce, you'd expect balls to rear up for him. 3/1 | ||||||||||

5.2 to SD Hope, the off stump is flattened. See Milne punch the air, but not Hope turning his head around in frustration. A back-of-the-hand slower ball leads to Hope's dismissal. Milne landed a yorker bang on off, and Hope's attempt to guide it with a flat bat failed. The length was too full, and the lack of pace may have also deceived him. A good cameo comes to an end, and PC have to rebuild again. 50/2 12.1 to C Esterhuizen, chopped on!! Milne has another first ball after being back. Short ball rising close to Esterhuizen's chest, but on a sixth-stump line. He goes pulling despite the extra bounce, and ends up getting a bottom edge. As a result, the leg stump is flattened, and so are some of PC's spirits. 104/5 16.1 to KA Maharaj, taken with a juggle!! It is Milne's third wicket. Bairstow, at cover point, kept his eyes on the ball, which was sent miles up in the air after Maharaj attempted a swat-pull off a short ball outside off. Bairstow did manage to take it, though, but only on the second attempt, much to Milne's relief. 133/7 16.6 to SE Rutherford, taken at long-off!! SEC getting closer to the win. Rutherford lofts this length ball hard and flat, but finds Jansen sitting at the boundary. Second wicket in the over for Milne, who finishes with 4 for 25. 138/8 | ||||||||||

10.3 to WCF Smeed, lovely bowling!! A left-arm spinner's dream wicket. Muthusamy angled it in from around the wicket, and landed it on a length on leg. Smeed looked to clip it to the leg side, only for the ball to turn and bounce almost dramatically. It ended up hitting the top of middle, leaving Smeed helpless and PC four down. 97/4 | ||||||||||

7.4 to D Brevis, got him!! Taken at wide long-on this time. It's the longer boundary there, and Brevis can't clear it. Another short ball from Gregory, and Brevis goes for another pull from around off stump. The six he got was a shorter boundary than that at wide long-on, and the fielder almost seemed to be placed closer to long-on than usual. 77/3 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 15 | 2 | 3.75 | 14 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
17.2 to Codi Yusuf, turn away, and bowled him!! The ball doesn't bounce a whole lot too. Slow and drifting in to pitch on middle, before turning away to clatter into off, as Yusuf looked to push forward at it with an open face of the bat. 138/9 17.6 to L Ngidi, it's over. SEC get the bonus point. Jansen, from long-on, runs and slides forward to take the catch to his left. Ngidi lofted this full ball dipping on to him around middle and off, and never timed it well enough. Ratnayake has two in the over, and SEC win by 48 runs. 140/10 | ||||||||||
