Linde to Markram, out Stumped!! Markram showed his cards a bit too early there. Jumped out of his crease with an intent to go big down the ground. The ball arrived much slower than anticipated, dipped nicely and then spun just enough to beat the batter all ends up on the outside edge. Rickelton finishes the formalities. Markram st Rickelton b Linde 35(17) [4s-5 6s-1]

Linde to Klaasen, out Caught by Corbin Bosch!! Not this time. He looks to go the other side and perishes. The length was once again on the fuller side, Klaasen clears his front leg and clubs it down the ground off the inside half. Long-on runs back and completes the catch with ease. Klaasen c Corbin Bosch b Linde 22(14) [4s-2 6s-1]

Boult to Conway, out Caught by Jason Smith!! End of an superb knock from Conway. He had to fetch this short ball from wide of off and it didn't quite have the pace he was hoping for. Drags it off the inside half to the right of deep square where Smith steadies himself to claim the catch. Conway c Jason Smith b Boult 64(33) [4s-7 6s-2]

Corbin Bosch to Buttler, out Caught by Boult !! Buttler's cameo comes to an end. 136ks wobble seam full ball in the channel outside off, Buttler looks to tonk it down the ground and gets it off the toe end of the bat, giving enough time for long-on to amble forward and complete the catch with ease. Buttler c Boult b Corbin Bosch 20 (12) [4s-2 6s-1]

Tristan Luus to Williamson, out Caught by Rashid Khan!! Wowza! Rashid Khan has pulled off the catch of the tournament already. It would take an extraordinary effort to top this. Dug into the surface wide of off, Williamson flays it straight and gets more height than distance. Rashid Khan kept running backwards and to his left at long-off and then had to control his momentum on the slide to take an absolute stunner over his right shoulder. He never looked like taking it and somehow managed to cling on with both hands at the last minute. Williamson c Rashid Khan b Tristan Luus 40(25) [4s-7]

Eathan Bosch to Linde, out Caught by Evan Jones!! Good diving catch forward at long-off and it's that man Jones again. It's a slower-ball off-cutter and full outside off, Linde gets forward to loft, off the bottom of the bat and he holes out. Linde c Evan Jones b Eathan Bosch 0(2)

Eathan Bosch to Rickelton, out Caught by Evan Jones!! End of Rickelton and that should be the game too. A full delivery outside off, in the slot but Rickelton gets forward and skies it. Jones makes no mistake at long-off. Another one which went miles up. May have been pace-off too. Rickelton c Evan Jones b Eathan Bosch 113(63) [4s-5 6s-11]

Kwena Maphaka to Pretorius, out Caught by Evan Jones!! Straight to long-off and Jones shows off his frustration as he flings the ball to the ground after taking it. Full on middle, Pretorius gets forward to loft, holes out to long-off. This time Jones makes no mistake. What an over this is from Kwena Maphaka. Just 9 and a wicket off it. Pretorius c Evan Jones b Kwena Maphaka 5(3) [4s-1]

Wiese to Pooran, out Caught by Buttler!! This goes further than the last ball, Buttler with a magnificent catch from long-on. Keeps his eyes on it and takes it. A short delivery and rushing Pooran on the pull, he gets forward to forehand and the ball goes to the sky almost and comes down with snow on it. Buttler comes in from long-on and takes it so well. Pressure catch and he is all smiles after taking that. Pooran c Buttler b Wiese 15(10) [4s-1 6s-1]

Eathan Bosch to Jason Smith, out Caught by Markram!! Respite for DSG. Full just outside off, in the slot, Jason Smith gets forward to loft and finds mid-off. Markram with a slight leap to take it on the reverse-cup. Jason Smith c Markram b Eathan Bosch 41(14) [4s-4 6s-3]

Harmer to Reeza Hendricks, out Bowled!! Cleaned up. Reeza Hendricks comes down the track and he misses the nudge to leg, the off-break turns in sharply and Reeza misses the flick, the leg-stump is uprooted. Past the inside-edge and the bat-pad gap. Reeza Hendricks b Harmer 28(21) [6s-3]

Eathan Bosch to van der Dussen, out Caught by Wiese!! Taken at deep square-leg. A short of length delivery on middle and leg, van der Dussen goes on the back foot and pulls, doesn't get the timing and it's straight to the fielder. Easy catch. The breakthrough is made. van der Dussen c Wiese b Eathan Bosch 2(6)
