Pat Cummins 50(92)

62.1
W
Maharaj to Pat Cummins, out Lbw!! Appeal for LBW and South Africa want a review. It's a fair delivery and it looks close to the naked eye, looks like there's no bat on that, need Ultraedge to confirm, it says no bat. This looks bad for Cummins, he's been struck on his back pad, is it spinning past off-stump? Hawk-Eye in and it's three reds. Maharaj has struck and Cummins is OUT. Much needed wicket for the hosts, they looked flat and were lacking in intensity this morning. Cummins falls after a fine knock, this was tossed up nicely around middle, Cummins went down low on the paddle sweep, failed to make contact and was struck on the back-pad, adjacent to middle-stump. It was going on and hitting the middle-stump, umpire Gould has to change his original call. Pat Cummins lbw b Maharaj 50(92) [4s-6 6s-1]

50.2
Maharaj to Paine, leg byes, 1 run. An audacious shot attempted by Paine. Tries to reverse-sweep and misses. It was too full to be trying that shot. Probably premeditated.
