Maharaj to Babar Azam, out Caught by de Zorzi!! Wow! Excellent catch from de Zorzi. He has plucked it out of thin air. That was a tossed up delivery, Babar Azam prodded forward and pushed the ball towards silly point. The ball went flat and low but the fielder dived to his right and plucked it inches off the turf. Pakistan lose number 3 and lose their premier batter. SA players are chuffed and pumped up now. An inspiring piece of fielding is what they needed and they have got it.
