Vernon Philander	5	0	14	1	2.80	23	2	0	0	1
4.5 to PJ Malan, big shout as Philander gets that to nip back in, yes says umpire Smith and the decision to bowl first is looking correct at the moment. 14/2
Johann Louw	19	2	48	3	2.52	90	5	1	1	0
1.1 to HG Kuhn, the veteran strikes with his first ball, taking out the off stump. 1/1 51.2 to CJD de Villiers, top edges the pull, Adams runs around from short leg and takes the catch, swirled around a little. 183/9 55.6 to RR Richards, looking to play a graceful shot to mid wicket, but a leading edge and taken at point. 192/10
Justin Kemp	12.4	2	45	5	3.55	60	9	0	0	0
10.5 to JA Rudolph, just enough away movement to kiss the outside edge, and the Cobras are right on top now. 29/3 14.1 to M Mosehle, looks to cut, but this time it goes high to the small figure of Vallie at point, the Cobras will celebrate with a drink. 39/4 42.2 to D Wiese, walks across the stumps and is hit in front, this time umpire Smith raises the dreaded finger. 164/6 42.4 to S von Berg, lovely ball, swinging back in through the gat and makes an awful mess of his stumps. 164/7 48.1 to RE van der Merwe, chipped to mid on and Kemp has his fifth. 179/8
Beuran Hendricks	12	2	36	1	3.00	54	4	0	0	2

88.5 to AG Puttick, inside edge and kuhn has to dive to his right to complete the catch, Puttick must have thought it was off the thigh pad. 289/2 100.3 to S van Zyl, thick edge as he drives, and taken at backward point. 349/4

Van der Merwe on the hook, but top edged, Vilas takes a steop or two to his right and waits for the skier.. 259/8 85.2 to CJD de Villiers, looks to slog it over midwicket, but skied over the bowler. Gray comes across from mid off and Simetu almost collides with him. The Cobras need a nominal target of 18.. 301/10
