4.3 to JH Kallis, Hastings draws the outside edge and breaks this busy opening stand. Full and outside off from wide of the crease. Kallis plays away from the body as he throws his hands at a drive and nicks it behind. 36/1 17.4 to AD Russell, Faulkner pulls off a cracker of a catch! Takes down Russell. Banged in short and rises outside off, Russell muscles it towards long-on. Faulkner is in the way... He leaps off his feet, and takes an overhead catch by the edge of the boundary. He hangs onto the ball even as he tumbles onto the ground. 154/5 | ||||||||||

8.6 to SR Watson, trapped plumb in front! Darted full and straight, Watson is struck flush on the front boot as he does not connect with a sweep. It would have hit middle and off. 59/3 12.5 to MEK Hussey, flighted full and on middle, Maxi gets Hussey lbw! He steps forward and is rapped on the front pad. It would have hit middle and leg. 101/4 | ||||||||||

7.5 to AC Blizzard, Zampa strikes in his first over. Blizzard holes out to long-on. He comes down the track, does not get close to the pitch and drags it to Wright who grabs it and plays up with the crowd. 55/2 | ||||||||||

5.2 to LJ Wright, gone! Back of a length on middle and off, Wright goes fore the pull but can only slice a lob to mid-on. Easily taken by Hussey over his head. The extra pace of Andre did for Wright who struggled with timing on that stroke. 48/1 5.3 to MP Stoinis, two in two! Russell gets another. Full on middle, Stoinis is beaten for pace and the ball sneaks through and hits Stoinis in front. The umpire gives him but replays show the ball was going over middle. 48/2 | ||||||||||

18.2 to KP Pietersen, gone! Massive wicket. Short delivery on middle, KP goes for the pull and can only top-edge it to fine leg, Fawad nervously gets under it and hold on. Lots of relief from Fawad, but an amazing innings from KP. 164/5 | ||||||||||
