    3.5 tries his first big shot, and finds midwicket. The pitch seems to be on the slower and lower side looking at that shot. Gets an on-pace length ball, tries the slog across the line, but gets no elevation 22/1
    11.3 big appeal, terrific delivery from Shamsi, and it's given! Lovely flight and dip from the left-arm wristspinner, on a stump-to-stump line. Liton looks to get forward to flick, but the ball dips on him, turns, and misses his inside edge to hit front pad. Liton has reviewed, but it's more out of hope than belief, I think... No inside edge. Pitches on middle stump, and, according to ball-tracking, hitting a big chunk of leg stump. Superb from Shamsi, genuinely beat Liton in the air there 45/6
    3.6 appeal for boot first, not given, and South Africa have reviewed it. Big inswinger first ball, nearly a yorker, and Sarkar's bat is slow in coming down, and the ball seems to have kissed the boot on the way to the bat. A very fine glance of the pad, and the rest is all good for Rabada. Taking the off stump. Decision overturned. Rabada will be on a hat-trick at the start of his next over 22/2
    5.3 two balls too late for the hat-trick but Rabada's gully placement works. Once again the shoulder of the bat with the extra bounce from short of a length. The gully in tight, so it is a sharp chance for Hendricks overhead, and it is slipping out of his hand as he comes down, but Hendricks manages to get his right hand under it before it goes to ground 24/3
    7.6 that is sensational bowling. Bouncing from short of a length, headed for his head, forcing him to fend, and flies off his shoulder. Given out caught as this is taken at point but he has reviewed it, suggesting this has come just off the shoulder. Replays show a pretty healthy glance off the glove on the way to the shoulder. They lose Mahmudullah, and the review 34/4
    8.1 oh he has had an almighty swing at him first ball. Steps out of the crease and looks to send this over midwicket or square leg. Misses it altogether. Nothing wrong with the intent because someone has to transfer the pressure back but the execution not great. Should go straighter so early in the innings 34/5
    15.2 flighted again, on an off-stump line this time, and Shamim steps out and looks to take on the boundary rider and the long boundary at long-on. He doesn't really catch this cleanly, and Maharaj barely has to move to accept the catch, which almost literally falls into his lap 64/7
    18.1 gone, nine down. Hits a hard length outside off, and the ball gets big on Mahedi. Looks to pull, only manages a top edge that loops up into the short extra-cover region. The bowler sprints there himself and takes a simple catch 84/9
    17.2 tossed up outside off, and that's a poor bit of judgment. Drives almost straight to Bavuma at extra-cover and sets off for the single. Bavuma anticipated well, moved in quickly and slightly to his left, and he had all the time in the world to take aim and take down the stumps at the bowler's end 77/8
    18.2 and he finishes it off with a full one at the stumps. Not in the blockhole, but Nasum, backing away to make room, misses on the downswing of his slash. And what's more, he's so far back in his crease that he's disturbed the stumps with his bat. Hit-wicket rather than bowled, I think. Bat hit the stumps before the ball did 84/10

    4.5 superb comeback. De Kock is making room again, Mahedi slows it down, stays short of that driving length, and de Kock plays defensively for the non-existent turn. Bowled 28/2
    0.6 lovely delivery. The length is such that it is aimed for top of the stumps. The line is just outside off. Then it seams back in ti beat the inside edge and trap him right in front. The finger goes up instantly. No review from the batters 6/1
    12.6 down the track, and that's an outstanding catch from Shoriful! Nasum slows it down just a touch, and van der Dussen has to reach out in front of him to hit the lofted shot. Ends up scooping it higher than he wants, and Shoriful turns around at mid-on, sprints towards the boundary, and throws himself forward to catch the ball that is descending from behind him, finishing sprawled on the ground with both hands wrapped around the ball. Outstanding 80/4
    5.5 Test-match stuff. On a length, outside off, draws the defensive shot, holds its line, takes a healthy edge and the wide slip dives to his left to take the catch 33/3
