Harmer to Dhruv Jurel, out Caught by Corbin Bosch!! Oh dear! A rank long hop and Jurel has found deep mid-wicket to perfection - Was dropped short and Jurel's eyes lit up - it was there to be smashed and he was eyeing the deep mid-wicket boundary, but the ball stopped a touch on him and he's through with the shot, catches the cue-end and lobs down Bosch's throat in the deep. A wicket out of nowhere and South Africa are chuffed to bits. India are effectively 33 for 4 now. Dhruv Jurel c Corbin Bosch b Harmer 13(34) [4s-3]

Corbin Bosch to Dhruv Jurel, no run, Dhruv Jurel has been given OUT caught behind and he reviews immediately - there was a sound, was it bat hitting the ground / pad?
