Ngidi to Zampa, out Bowled!! All over. Ngidi ends things. That slower-ball off-cutter again, full and Zampa gets forward to loft, thin inside-edge goes back on to the stumps. Ngidi is elated. South Africa go 1-0 up. Zampa b Ngidi 11(18) [4s-1]

40.2
W
Ngidi to Nathan Ellis, out Lbw!! Given out LBW and Nathan Ellis is happy to walk off. No reviews left for Australia. This looks to be missing leg-stump. And yes it is. But Australia have no reviews left. It's a slower-ball off-cutter and cuts back in, Ellis misses the pull, hit on the back thigh, but impact too is marginal and clearly missing leg-stump. Stayed a bit low and that defeated the shot. The umpire is happy to raise the finger. Ngidi is all smiles. Nathan Ellis lbw b Ngidi 14(20) [4s-1 6s-1]
