Gregory run out (Fortuin/Verreynne) 5(7)

Ottneil Baartman to Nortje, out Caught by Verreynne!! Another one bites the dust! A skiddy back of a length delivery outside off, Nortje tries to hit it across but only manages to get a healthy edge behind. Verreynne takes a regulation catch. Nortje c Verreynne b Ottneil Baartman 4(3)

Nqobani Mokoena to Milne, out Caught by Asa Tribe!! That's a great catch from Asa Tribe! Nqobani Mokoena finishes with a 4-fer! He has been sharp in the field. A shortish delivery shaping in from outside off, Milne mistimes his flat-batted stroke over mid-on. Tribe backtracks, keeps his eyes on the ball and leaps a bit to reverse cup it before tumbling down. He maintained his balanced and judged it to perfection. Milne c Asa Tribe b Nqobani Mokoena 0(2)

Nqobani Mokoena to Muthusamy, out Caught by Delano Potgieter!! Nqobani Mokoena gets a 3-fer! A skiddy shortish delivery on off, Muthusamy is rushed for pace but still goes for a pull shot and ends up miscuing it to mid-wicket. Potgieter moves back and catches it safely. Muthusamy c Delano Potgieter b Nqobani Mokoena 2(3)

Mujeeb to Jordan Hermann, out Lbw!! Jordan Hermann has been trapped in front but he challenges the decision! Was a full delivery that drifted in from off from round the wicket, kept sliding on with the angle, Hermann knelt down on one knee and tried to play the big sweep but missed to get pinged on the pads. Time for the replays. UltraEdge shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it returns three reds - it would have crashed into the leg-stump. A decent knock from Hermann comes to an end. Jordan Hermann lbw b Mujeeb 47(35) [4s-4 6s-1]

Ottneil Baartman to Marco Jansen, out Caught by Asa Tribe!! That's a fine catch from Asa Tribe! A back of a length delivery on off, shaping away, Marco Jansen tries to hit it downtown but only manages to get it off the toe-end over the bowler's head. Asa Tribe sprints across to his left from long-on and the fielder from long-off also charges towards it. The former calls for it, keeps his eyes on the ball and gets low to take a very good catch. Marco Jansen c Asa Tribe b Ottneil Baartman 17(9) [4s-1 6s-1]

Ottneil Baartman to Marco Jansen, FOUR, that would have been a spectacular catch had Fortuin taken it! A very full delivery outside off, Marco Jansen carves it uppishly to the right of backward point. Fortuin leaps to his right and gets a hand to it but it bursts through. It was struck so hard that it reaches the fence

Ottneil Baartman to Jordan Hermann, no run, stifled appeal for a caught and bowled! Verreynne feels that that it might have carried on the full. The umpires get together and decide to send it upstairs to check whether it's a bump ball or a catch. Was a fuller delivery around off, Jordan Hermann shuffled across his stumps and it seems that he jammed it out on the bounce to Ottneil Baartman. The replay shows that it's a clear bump ball

Mujeeb to Marco Jansen, SIX, going, going and gone! Marco Jansen uses his feet, gets close to the pitch of the delivery and hits it towards long-off. He struck that with the breeze and the fielder can only see it sailing over his head and the fence

Nqobani Mokoena to Jordan Hermann, FOUR, hit with authority! Pace off on this shortish delivery outside off, Jordan Hermann lines it up and flat-bats it powerfully. No chance for long-off to cut it off

Nqobani Mokoena to Stubbs, out Caught by Keagan Lion Cachet!! Nelson strikes! A shortish delivery on off, Stubbs pulls it hard and flat and it's traveling at a good pace towards deep backward square leg. Keagen moves to his left and takes a well-judged catch. Nqobani Mokoena is pumped up! Stubbs struck it well but couldn't find the gap and has to depart. Stubbs c Keagan Lion Cachet b Nqobani Mokoena 17(16)

Ottneil Baartman to Jordan Hermann, FOUR, 138ks full on middle and leg, Hermann gave himself plenty of room and hammered the drive in the gap through extra cover. Superbly timed!

Mujeeb to Jordan Hermann, SIX, that was begging to be bashed! And a bearded guy in the crowd has plucked it out of thin air. One-handed catch too and he puts his hand up to soak in all the cheers from the crowd. Long hop from Mujeeb and it has been put away disdainfully over deep square with a cracking pull

Asa Tribe to Jordan Hermann, FOUR, soon as Hermann saw the length - short - he jumped back and threw his hands on the cut through cover, beating the fielder in the deep to his left

Asa Tribe to Jordan Hermann, FOUR, nailed! One bounce and over the ropes. Jordan Hermann shimmies down the wicket, gets closer to the pitch of the delivery and thumps it back over the bowler's head

Delano Potgieter to Breetzke, out Caught&Bowled!! Chipped back to the bowler. 126ks lengt ball and wobbles in towards off stump, it stops a touch and catches the toe end of the bat. Breetzke wanted to whip leg-side and ended up chipping a dolly of a return catch back to the bowler. Breetzke c and b Delano Potgieter 13(18)

Fortuin to Breetzke, 1 run, fuller on middle and leg, Breetzke flicks and gets it off the inside edge to short fine

Ottneil Baartman to Bairstow, out Caught by Asa Tribe!! Did that carry? Bairstow is not sure. Asa Tribe is celebrating. Clean catch and Bairstow has to go. Not too full and not too short. In that in-between length wide of off stump. Bairstow was all hands as he tried to slap it on the off-side. Skews off the cue end of the bat and offers a low catch to the fielder at extra cover. Asa Tribe crouched and positioned himself really well to claim it inches above the ground. Bairstow c Asa Tribe b Ottneil Baartman 33(20) [4s-4 6s-2]

Ottneil Baartman to Bairstow, SIX, can't be bowling that wide to Bairstow! 139ks touch fuller than a good length outside off, Bairstow holds his shape and carves it up and over extra cover to his left

Ottneil Baartman to Bairstow, FOUR, overpitched outside off at 137ks, Bairstow thumps it down the ground over mid-off with disdain. Nearly a one-bounce boundary that...

Nqobani Mokoena to Bairstow, FOUR, third boundary of the over! 136ks short and angled in at the stumps, Bairstow pulls and gets it off the thick inside half to the right of the man at short fine

Nqobani Mokoena to Bairstow, FOUR, Nqobani Mokoena goes short again! Bairstow stays put and throws his hands on the cut up and over cover. Save your legs, Jonny...

Nqobani Mokoena to Bairstow, FOUR, 138ks short outside off, Bairstow opens the bat face and guides it past the fielder at short third diving across to his right

Nqobani Mokoena to de Kock, out Caught by Verreynne!! A not-so-confident appeal from the Royals. The umpire stands still and then points out towards de Kock who had started to walk back towards the pavilion. Wobble seam length delivery angling away outside off, de Kock chases and looks to force it wide of cover. A faint outside edge to the left of the keeper. de Kock c Verreynne b Nqobani Mokoena 7(6) [4s-1]

Nqobani Mokoena to de Kock, FOUR, first boundary of the game! 137ks angling away from a length outside off, de Kock uses the width to open the bat face and play the late cut in the gap behind backward point
