- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.4 Ntini nails Imran! Slightly short of length and at some pace, Imran was cramped up when he went for the pull, ended up shovelling a dolly to mid on. South Africa are running hot here, Pakistan continue to blow hot and cold. 21/25.2 Akmal's misery continues. Goes for a pull, off a short-pitched delivery and skies it towards midwicket. Another failure for Akmal. 20/116.4 Suicidal slash! Wide outside off, full in length, Younis decides to chase it and ends up getting a nick to Boucher. Had he left it alone, it would have been called a wide. 65/339.1 Pakistan continue to tumble. Huge wicket. Yousuf is gone. Edging behind. In the zone outside off, Yousuf pushes at it, bat away from the body, and nicks it to right of Boucher who dives low to grab the catch. Ntini is chuffed and why not. 165/620.5 Gone! The drop has not proven costly. Again the shuffle has done in Inzy. He moves right across the stumps, the ball lands on the off and middle, came in and the bat came down the wrong line and is rapped in front. It would have taken out the leg stump. Pakistan are wobbling at 71 for 4 as the mediumpacers are doing the job for the hosts. 71/438.4 Malik falls as the rain comes down at Port Elizabeth. Banged in short of length, on the off stump line, Malik, trying to up the ante, went for a pull, made contact with top half of the bat and skies it to midwicket. He had crept to a fluent 41 and was looking good 162/540.3 Afridi combusts! Banged in short, well outside the off stump, Afridi tries to fetch it from there, and slap it over midwicket and ends up swatting it to point. 175/746.5 And he strikes gold this time! Fourth wicket for Hall. All you Hall fans would be thrilled. This one was full and well outside off, hint of swing away, Razzaq backs to leg side and has a slash, ends up nicking it into the safe gloves of Boucher 216/8Extras7 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL245/8 (49.5 Overs, RR: 4.91)Did not bat: Mohammad AsifFall of wickets: 1-20 (Kamran Akmal, 5.2 ov), 2-21 (Imran Nazir, 5.4 ov), 3-65 (Younis Khan, 16.4 ov), 4-71 (Inzamam-ul-Haq, 20.5 ov), 5-162 (Shoaib Malik, 38.4 ov), 6-165 (Mohammad Yousuf, 39.1 ov), 7-175 (Shahid Afridi, 40.3 ov), 8-216 (Abdul Razzaq, 46.5 ov)
