W
Lutho Sipamla to Ferisco Adams, out Caught by Klaasen!! What.A.Catch! That was short outside off, Ferisco Adams goes for the reverse hack and ends up edging it for the keeper to literally fly to his right and take it. End of the innings as well. That should be Klaasen's wicket as that was indeed a stupendous catch from the keeper. Ferisco Adams c Klaasen b Lutho Sipamla 12(17) [4s-1]
18.2
W
Tom Curran to Viljoen, out Bowled!! Right up there, Viljoen looks to slog and misses for the ball to crash into the sticks after hitting the pads. That was quick and full, tailed in and Viljoen could not get any bat on it. Viljoen b Tom Curran 0(2)

W
Lungi Ngidi to Udana, out Caught by Wiaan Mulder!! Slower ball does it again. That held on to the surface a bit and Udana ended up chipping it to the man at cover. The fielder back-pedalled and took it easily. That was on a length and Udana wanted to hit it on the up but could not time it at all. Udana c Wiaan Mulder b Lungi Ngidi 10(11) [4s-2]

Lungi Ngidi to Udana, FOUR, picks the length and slogs it across the line for a four to the deep mid region, which was vacant

Tom Curran to Udana, FOUR, edge! Four! The batter looked to drive and got it off the edge for Ngidi at deep third man to misfield and let the ball to dribble away to the fence

Tom Curran to Ferisco Adams, FOUR, short, wide, cut away past short third for a four. Was a slower one but Ferisco Adams did well
15.1
W
Morne Morkel to Mosehle, out Caught by Tom Curran!! Slower length delivery and Mosehle looks to heave it but mistimes it and the man at deep square takes an easy catch. The batter was through with his shot too early and hence failed to control it. Paarl continue to struggle. Mosehle c Tom Curran b Morne Morkel 14(19) [4s-2]

van der Merwe to Mosehle, FOUR, back, away, quick hands then crashing it away through point, bisecting both the fielders out there in the infield

W
van der Merwe to du Plessis, out Caught by Pite van Biljon!! Another wicket thrown away, and the Rocks sink some more. Faf tries to loft a cover drive, but in the process of stretching out gets too close to the pitch of it to be getting under. Ends up with the toe-end on the slice, without elevation, and mid-off's right there in its trajectory. du Plessis c Pite van Biljon b van der Merwe 19(21) [4s-1]

Morne Morkel to du Plessis, FOUR, goes innovating. Shuffles across, sits in front of his stumps and scoops it away really fine. Well, he's been overusing this shot of his all through the tournament
11.4
4
Morne Morkel to Mosehle, FOUR, lofts his on-drive, realizing the mid-on is inside the circle, doesn't really get it off the middle, but there's just enough in those arms to clear
10.4
W
van der Merwe to Fortuin, out Stumped!! Through everything. A dipping full toss, which Fortuin looks to flick away. But he's beaten by the loop big time, as this one drifts in and he ends up overbalancing outside his crease. The keeper isn't clean either, but has a very lucky ricochet off his gloves onto the stumps with Fortuin still outside from his falling over. Fortuin st Klaasen b van der Merwe 5(6)

W
van der Merwe to Makhanya, out Caught by Lutho Sipamla!! He was getting tied down here, and so decides to break the shackles with one mighty sweep. Nah, not clean. Gets the top-edge and it's straight down deep square leg's throat. Makhanya c Lutho Sipamla b van der Merwe 16(15) [4s-1 6s-1]

Lutho Sipamla to Makhanya, SIX, slower full one, Makhanya lofts his slog early, but there'e enough behind it to get it to carry over long-on

Lungi Ngidi to Makhanya, FOUR

W
Tom Curran to James Vince, out James Vince Run Out!! 1 run completed. There's something with Vince and Faf and run-outs. Well. It adds another chapter. This time with Vince flaying it through point, calling for the second only for Sipamla's flat throw back getting the better of his stretch. James Vince run out (Lutho Sipamla/Klaasen) 2(3)

W
Lungi Ngidi to Delport, out Caught by Morne Morkel!! Oops. After the cleanest of hits, Delport goes half-heartedly at a rib-lined bouncer in looking to pull it away. But there's some tennis-ball-like bounce in this, drawing up a thick top-edge, into a waiting short fine leg. Delport c Morne Morkel b Lungi Ngidi 25(12) [4s-3 6s-1]

Lungi Ngidi to Delport, FOUR, a cross-seamer off a back of a length, but Delport's in some form here tonight. He jumps, punches on the up and

Lungi Ngidi to Delport, FOUR, banged in short, but Delport rides it better, with a late stab to place it perfectly behind point
2.5
W
Morne Morkel to Davids, out Bowled!! Dances down, makes room, wants to go inside-out. But Morkel's split-finger slower one is a better bamboozle, dipping under the bat, leaving a mess behind. Davids b Morne Morkel 14(9) [4s-3]
2.3
4
Morne Morkel to Delport, FOUR, smashed straight down. Lots of bottom hand on this, getting under the length and nearly cleaning up his partner with this blow
1.4
4
Lutho Sipamla to Davids, FOUR, overcompensates with one too straight -- on the pads, and easy flicks these, beating short fine leg's dive
1.3
4
Lutho Sipamla to Davids, FOUR, stays up tall, lets the width get parallel to his eyeline before cutting it away easily in front of point
1.1
6
Lutho Sipamla to Delport, SIX, a warm up sitter, and Delport needs no sighters. He's quick to swivel, pick this up and swat it behind square. And Centurion's altitude does the rest

Tom Curran to Davids, FOUR, a floaty slower one, really full, giving Davids enough time to read it off the air as he drills it through the covers
