0.3 to TM Head, Jansen has his revenge as Head edges to first slip! It's on a good length on that fifth-stump line. Head pokes his bat out and Hendricks takes it low. This game is off to a thrilling start!. 6/1
4049012.2547100
4140110.00106110
5.2 to JP Inglis, What a jaffa! It's a slow dipping yorker on off and Inglis can't get his bat down as the zinger bails light up! The debutant is delighted as he should be with a delivery like that. 70/3
4044311.0084310
4.5 to MW Short, WIlliams gets the breakthrough! Back of length just outside off and he goes for the pull but doesn't get the connection he was looking for. Can only pick out Hendricks at deep midwicket. A brilliant 63-run partnership comes to an end. And there's still more than an over to go for the powerplay to finish off!. 69/2
6.6 to MP Stoinis, Straight to deep midwicket! South Africa will feel they are right back in this. Williams goes back of a length on the stumps and Stoinis goes for the pull. Gets it off the toe end and it is down Jansen's throat just a few paces inside from the boundary rope. 77/4
18.4 to AM Hardie, Holes out to sweeper cover. Struck flat and hard. One debutant gets another. Brevis runs in from sweeper cover and pouches it. Full and wide - Williams bowls to his field - and has the batter caught in the outfield. 210/6
4042110.5083310
15.2 to TH David, Bavuma pulls off a stunner! SA needed something special to get rid of David and that something special is this catch. He tears across to his right from wide long-off. The ball threatens to swerve over his head, but Bavuma judges it superbly and hangs onto the catch after leaping to his right. He didn't land too smoothly, but still kept the ball in his hand. Looped up and Shamsi hides it away from the reach of David. He's usually strong in the 'V' but can only slice it. 174/5

0.5 to T Bavuma, Inside edge and onto the stumps! It's full outside off and seams in sharply as Bavuma looks for the drive, leaving a big gap between bat and pad. The ball takes a slight deflection on its way to the stumps. Bavuma walks without scoring a run. 1/1
13.1 to G Coetzee, slowie outside off, Coetzee winds up and ends up holing out to Tim David at long-on. He gets more height as opposed to distance. David settles under this skier. 107/7
13.5 to LB Williams, Holes out to mid-on. Hard-length delivery from Stoinis as he bowls deep into the pitch. Cramps Williams and has him miscuing a pull to mid-on. 109/8
3.303329.4283210
15.1 to RR Hendricks, Caught at long-on. David snatches it on the rebound. Suspect this was the slower ball from Johnson, takes it away from Hendricks. He can only drag it to the outfielder. Maiden international wicket for Johnson. 114/9
15.3 to T Shamsi, Johnson completes Australia's demolition job! On a length and nips back in against the angle from left-arm over to breach the defences and hit the top of off stump. 115/10
201718.5041100
4.5 to HE van der Dussen, Van der Dussen with a soft dismissal! It's a slower length ball and van der Dussen wants to go over extra cover but ends up just chipping it. It's also too straight so Marsh can take it reverse-cupped moving to his left. 47/2
201105.5030010
403147.7564000
6.6 to AK Markram, Sangha has his first international wicket! Probably not the delivery he would have though he'd get it with. It's short and wide and Markram rocks back and looks to cut but it's straight at Stoinis at backward point and he takes it above his head. 61/3
8.3 to D Brevis, Straight to long-off! One debutant gets the other! This was pitched up and Brevis instantly goes for the drive down the ground. He doesn't quite get the elevation he would have wanted and it's a comfortable chest-height catch for Abbott at the boundary. 69/4
8.4 to T Stubbs, Oh what a beauty! Tanveer Sangha is enjoying a dream debut here! It's a brilliant legbreak on a length around off, drawing Stubbs forward. The ball turns away from him and Inglis is quick to collect and whip the bails off. The square-leg umpire gives it out immediately and Sangha is on a hat-trick!. 69/5
12.5 to M Jansen, Good comeback from Sangha. The debutant cleans up Jansen. Seems like the wrong'un, fizzes in as opposed to turning away. Jansen has a big slog at it and misses it altogether. Sangha doesn't miss his target. 106/6
