Boult to Rutherford, out Caught by Pooran!! That's gone a mile into the Pretoria sky - Pooran settles under it, watches it all along, opens up his body and completes a good catch at long-off. Was a slot ball and Rutherford will be disappointed at having not put it away - went too hard and it came right off the bottom of the bat, still needed some catching and Pooran was very calm under it. Rutherford c Pooran b Boult 53(27) [4s-3 6s-5]

Karim Janat to Rutherford, SIX, 24 off the over, a leg-stump half-volley and Rutherford has simply whipped it over square leg, sails over the ropes for a maximum and brings up Rutherford's 1st 50 of SA20 2025-26. He's been outstanding as a finisher and he's on it once again
18.5

Karim Janat to Rutherford, SIX, clobbered, on a length and angling across the left-hander, Janat tries to get away from Rutherford's hitting area - but the left-hander throws his bat and carves it over deep cover, shorter boundary and it sailed into the grass-banks

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, SIX, massive, length ball in the slot and Rutherford doesn't miss it - gets right under the length and then hammers the drive back over the bowler's head, went sailing into the stands and it'll not come back - new balls please

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, FOUR, oh dear! van Vuuren has had a tough little time - dropped the catch and has now fumbled a boundary - fuller length delivery and Rutherford lashed the drive to deep cover, he had it covered, but took his eyes off it at the last moment and let the ball slip out of his grasp
17.3

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, FOUR, nicely played, fuller length delivery on the pads and it's whipped through backward square leg - the fielder in the deep is very square and has no chance
17.1
Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, 1 run, a chance, Bosch calls for it and just about manages to lay his fingers onto it - could he have left it to either of the two fielders running in from the deep? Was a length ball outside off, right in the slot and Rutherford went too hard on the slog - gets a thick top-edge and the ball lobs high towards cover
17
Rabada to Rutherford, 1 run, fuller length delivery and well wide of off, away from Rutherford's hitting area - he reaches out and gets a thick inside edge, behind square on the on-side for a single
16.5
Rabada to Rutherford, no run, much better from Rabada - the wide yorker outside off and Rutherford can't reach out on the drive
16.4
Rabada to Rutherford, no run, big shout for LBW, but Rabada is bowling from over the wicket - there were a couple of noises as well - Rutherford was looking to slog it onto the on-side and the ball did the graze the inside edge

Boult to Rutherford, SIX, 20 off the over, a horrid full-toss from Boult - this has been a poor over, Rutherford shuffles across and swings it high over square leg, that went a long long way - they check for the height, but it was dipping and is deemed as a fair delivery, a 98m maximum
15.4
Boult to Rutherford, 1 run, another full-toss and Rutherford will feel he's missed out here - swings it past square leg for a single
15.3

14.1
Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, 2 runs, that seems to be the message at the break - on a good length and angling into the left-hander, Rutherford swings across the line, doesn't get hold of the shot and it drops wide of long-on
14
Rashid Khan to Rutherford, 1 run, flighted delivery outside off - driven square on the off-side for a single
13.5
Rashid Khan to Rutherford, no run, Rutherford has been given OUT LBW and he's reviewed it almost immediately - did he get an inside edge? Clear gap between bat and ball - UltraEdge confirms the same, onto ball-tracking and it's bouncing over the stumps - NOT OUT is the call. The wrong 'un from Rashid, drifted in and then straightened onto the left-hander, Rutherford was playing for the turn as he looked to clip, misses it completely and struck high on the back-thigh
13.3
Rashid Khan to Rutherford, 1 run, flatter and quicker on middle, pulled over square leg for a single
13.2
Rashid Khan to Rutherford, no run, very full from Rashid - right in the blockhole and Rutherford squeezes it out
13
Rabada to Rutherford, 2 runs, a mix-up and Brevis might've been struggling at the striker's end, despite his dive - dropped in front of backward point and Rutherford set-off, but he then stuttered and stopped, so too did Brevis and they then decided to go through - the fielder has a shy and misses, concedes an overthrow as well
12.5
Rabada to Rutherford, no run, on a good length and just outside off - Rutherford prods across and can't beat backward point with the defensive block
