Marnus Labuschagne 17(56)

17.6

Marco Jansen to Labuschagne, out Caught by Verreynne!! Clear edge and up goes the finger! First wicket of the day for Jansen as South Africa's superb start to this Test continues. Round the wicket, good length ball in the channel, Labuschagne's footwork is tentative as he looks to defend, ends up poking at it and nicks it through to the keeper. It was the scramble seam release from Jansen and may have held its line a touch. Labuschagne c Verreynne b Marco Jansen 17(56) [4s-1]

17.5

Marco Jansen to Labuschagne, leg byes, FOUR, the bumper hits Labuschagne on the shoulder and loops above the slip cordon! He tried ducking under it, maybe was a little late and maybe it didn't bounce as high as anticipated. He looks okay, doesn't need the physio

Wise decision as it hasn't come back enough. Good length ball just outside off, nips back a fraction and hits Labuschagne on the back leg as he offers no shot. Don't think it would've troubled off stump
