- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.1 Boult rips out du Plessis! Length delivery on middle and leg stump that seems to hold in the surface just a touch and also straightens. du Plessis, looking to work to leg, closes his bat face early and gets a leading edge that flies towards Brevis at backward point. He times his jump to perfection and hands MINY the breakthrough they were after! 12/116.1 Conway perishes too! Back of a length on off stump. Conway, feeling the pressure of the scoring rate, has a hack at it. Seems to be a tad early on the stroke, though, and he clinks it straight to Brevis at deep mid wicket. TSK keep losing wickets and momentum! 115/52.4 edged and taken! Boult has two in the powerplay! Back of a length delivery outside off that leaves the batter very late. Santner, without any foot movement, goes fishing at it and feathers it through to Pooran, who does the rest. TSK in some early trouble! 18/25.2 Chetty bites the dust! Back of a length outside off and this seems to zip through and bounce that little bit extra. Chetty comes down the track again and looks to go over the off side ring. But because he is a smidgen late on the stroke, he can only nick it through to Pooran, who accepts the offering gleefully! 34/315.2 holes out to deep mid wicket! Full toss at the stumps and Milind ought to have hit that onto the highway. Instead, he shanks his swipe and arrows it straight to deep mid wicket. Brevis shows excellent composure on the fence. Catches it first, reckons he is going over, flicks it into the air and then completes the dismissal! 111/418.4 length delivery outside off. Sams waits for it and jabs it towards deep point. He hustles back for the second and has to stretch to make his ground. Has he done enough, though? The throw was accurate and Pooran whipped off the bails in a flash. The replays come up....and Sams is just short of his ground. Excellent work by MINY and Sams' struggles come to an end! 138/619.3 taken brilliantly at long on! Darted in just outside off. Miller looks to go downtown but this is a tad wider than he would have wanted. Tries to fetch it but all he manages is to drag it towards long on. Wiese runs in from the fence, dives forward and completes a superb catch! 155/818.6 leg stump out of the ground! Another knuckle-ball that pitches on off stump and keeps coming back in with the angle. Savage, after his exploits previous ball, tries to be funky and looks for the scoop. Gets no bat on it, though, and the ball flattens leg stump! 144/719.4 two in two for David! Back of a length delivery on middle and leg. Coetzee tries to tonk it into tomorrow but is in no shape to play that stroke. The ball skews up off the outside edge and Taylor gobbles up a fairly regulation chance at backward point! 155/919.6 back of a length outside off. Mohsin walks across and slaps it towards long off. Theron wants Mohsin to come back for the second but the latter is not interested. The fielder throws it to David, who then relays it to Pooran. The keeper takes off the bails with Theron stranded and TSK are bowled out, ultimately! 158/10Extras24 (lb 7, nb 1, w 16)TOTAL158 all out (20 Overs, RR: 7.9)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Faf du Plessis, 2.1 ov), 2-18 (Mitchell Santner, 2.4 ov), 3-34 (Cody Chetty, 5.2 ov), 4-111 (Milind Kumar, 15.2 ov), 5-115 (Devon Conway, 16.1 ov), 6-138 (Daniel Sams, 18.4 ov), 7-144 (Calvin Savage, 18.6 ov), 8-155 (David Miller, 19.3 ov), 9-155 (Gerald Coetzee, 19.4 ov), 10-158 (Rusty Theron, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.3 in the air and taken this time! One shot too many for Jahangir! Back of a length delivery angled into leg stump. Jahangir backs away and tries to smash it into next week. Skies this completely, though, and the ball travels towards deep square leg. Sams comes in off the fence and snares the chance diving forward! 44/23.4 soft dismissal! Slower delivery on a length on middle and off stump. van Staden tries to go downtown but it looks like he has not picked the change of pace. van Staden is way too early into the stroke and miscues it completely. Savage runs in a couple of yards and takes the catch comfortably at mid on! 23/110.4 Pooran departs! What a moment in the game! Slower yorker on off stump that dips on Pooran late and causes him all sorts of problems. Does not pick it either and the ball swerves past the bat before pinning him on the boot, right in front of the stumps. The umpire gives it out and Pooran, while trying to run after the ball hit the boot, ends up on the turf. He does not bother with the review, and rightly so. That looked very adjacent! 74/315.5 Mohsin gets David! Another twist in the tale! Quicker, flatter and shorter outside off. David, trying to pile further misery on Mohsin, continues swinging. This one, though, is out of his hitting arc and he has to reach out a touch. Loses his shape in that pursuit and slices it straight to deep point! 124/4Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL162/4 (19 Overs, RR: 8.52)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Slade van Staden, 3.4 ov), 2-44 (Shayan Jahangir, 5.3 ov), 3-74 (Nicholas Pooran, 10.4 ov), 4-124 (Tim David, 15.5 ov)
