Scorecard summary
South Africa 199/9(50 overs)

Klusener to Mahanama, no run

defended on the off side

33.5
Klusener to Mahanama, no run

but he makes a nice two-handed infield pounce there

it was actually Rhodes the fielder, showing his failings in throwing from the deep

Klusener to Mahanama, 2 runs

pushing behind the point fielder, quick running, but the deep fielder just wasn't strong enough or accurate enough with his throw, TV called anyway, safely in
