    22.2 gets the fine little snick through to Boucher. Well bowled. 54/2
    14.4 And Ntini gets the first breakthrough, short and straightish, Kayes gets a outside edge and the ball goes straight to the safe hands off Smith. 25/1
    58.2 McKenie takes a great catch at gully after Siddique goes for one too many cut-shot. A good innings comes to an end. 166/7
    25 just chipped back to Morkel, just a bit too quick on that shot. Morkel makes no mistake this time and the goes the skipper of Bangladesh. 57/3
    32.2 got him! Excellent delivery angling across the left-hander, so typical of Ntini. He was squared up, following the delivery and edging it straight to Kallis at second slip 71/4
    44.3 gone! Morkel gets his third, this time the edge flies straight to Smith at first slip and Boucher not diving in front of him again. Well bowled young lad. 122/5
    51 and the noball earlier in the over gives him the chance to save this over. Full again, but not that wide, Shakib goes for the cover drive and drags it onto his stumps. Morkel now has four wickets. 159/6
    76.2 Rahim goes for the big pull-shot again, gets a bit of a top edge and De Villiers runs in from square leg and takes a good diving catch to finally end this innings. 250/10
    62.1 and another one gone. Ntini just pitches it up a bit, the movement off the pitch does the rest and Kallis takes a good low-catch at second slip. 186/8
    64.2 gone! Another one down. Just one wicket to go. Fine little snick through to Boucher. 194/9

    15.2 the skipper walks. Old habbit of his, going across the line of the ball, the sheer amout of inswing jst caused him to miss and that was hitting middle at the top. Excellent ball but an old technical problem for Smith sticks out it's head again. 47/2
    2.2 gone! Bangladesh gets the early breakthrough. McKenzie gets a thick edge to backward point who makes a fumble but takes it the third time around. 3/1
    44.4 Amla goes for the forward defence, ball hits the pads and goes on to flick the bat and the ball goes to short cover. Easy catch taken. Huge appeals from the Bangladeshi's, for LBW and the catch, but Amla takes a walk before the umpire even lifts a finger, so that must've been bat. 134/4
    40.2 straight through the gate and uproots off-stump. A struggling Kallis goes back to the cloaks. 112/3

    45 De Villiers goes down the track on his second ball and as if a replay from the first test he is stumped. Silly silly little boy. That was really very stupid from De Villiers. 134/5
    108.3 short and straight, Boucher pushes at the ball and is caught at short-cover. A very good fighting knock comes to an end. 405/6
    108.4 first ball! Short and straightish, Morkel gets an inside edge onto his pads and the ball bounces into his off-stump. 405/7
    109 and gone! Unlucky for Shakib, just missing the hat-trick. Same delivery as the previous one, this time just a bit more bounce and the ball just flicks the gloves on the way through to the keeper. 3 wickets in four deliveries. 405/8
    109.5 Ntini punches the ball with a whole lot of bottom-hand and scoops it up to Ashraful at mid-off. South Africa collapsing here. 412/9
    115.2 attempted pull, gets the inside edge and hits the stumps. 429/10

    15.2 gone! Wat a catch! Shortish and wide and takes a swing at it, cuts it backward of point, McKenzie takes a dive to his right and grabs with one hand. Excellent catch there . 47/3
    3.5 short and just outside off, gets the edge straight to Smith at first slip and he makes no mistake. That will be lunch. Please join us again after lunch for the rest of the day's play. 8/1
    12.2 and finally the intimidation pays off, another short and straight one, bouncy, hits the gloves and flies away to point, easy catch. 37/2
    19.2 and another one. That was an excellent direct hit from Steyn down at long-leg, right from the fence hits the stumps directly. The Bangladeshi captain is found short of his ground by about 3 inches. 68/5
    17.2 oh no, completely unneccesary,turns for a second run, takes on the arm of Amla and finds himself sort of his ground. Direct hit down at the bowler's end. 57/4
    34 another stupid run by the Bangladeshi's, goes for the idiotic single and Prince makes no mistake. 126/7
    21.5 quite a shocking delivery gets a wicket, short and very wide, takes a slash at it and goes out to the deep backward point fence where Ntini takes a good catch diving forward. 77/6
    29.1 what a ball! Just leaves the ball outside off and Ntini swings the ball enough to uproot off-stump. What a sight for a fast-bowler. 95/7

    34.4 short and straight, just guides it to third slip actually. De Villiers makes no mistake. 127/9
    36.4 and the fine little edge carrying through to Boucher ends it all. Game, set,match and series for that mater. 131/10
