- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 Run-out chance! And van der Dussen has lost his balance trying to get on the crease, and is down on the floor. Replays confirm Bairstow whipped the bails off before he got his bat in. That's two down for Cape Town. Esterhuizen got an inside edge off a full delivery around off, that goes towards backward point. But there is a misfield, which makes the batters consider the second, but van der Dussen is sent back after he makes his start, with Shamsi quick to collect it on the second go, and he doesn't make it back in time 12/23.4 And the pressure tells! Hendricks slices it to deep point and Jones is pumped. Another length ball outside off, Hendricks looks to go inside out but ends up slicing it off the outside half. Devon Conway gets under it and makes no mistake 8/17.2 Great catch at first slip! Wiese does it with his outswinger, as he draws Esterhuizen into a booming drive. He gets a thick edge that flies to Lubbe's left, but he flings himself high and across to grab that 26/38.3 Colin Ingram holes off to long-on! That was a rank long hop! And he picks out the fielder. This is a legbreak on off and Ingram frees his arms and looks to pull, but doesn't get enough height or distance on it 30/412.5 Sipamla gets the big wicket of Brevis! Digs it into the pitch and Brevis gets a top edge as he looks to pull this. Deep midwicket runs in and settles under it and MICT's revival is stunted 73/513.3 Huge mix-up and that's a second run-out with both batters stranded on the same end! On a length on middle and off, he drops it towards point and wants to push off for a single, but stops. There is an overthrow at the striker's end and Linde signals for a single, but immediately turns him down. But Omarzai had run down the track by then and Pathirana takes the bails off with no batter in the pitcture at the non-striker's end! 75/6Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL140/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Reeza Hendricks, 3.4 ov), 2-12 (Rassie van der Dussen, 4.3 ov), 3-26 (Connor Esterhuizen, 7.2 ov), 4-30 (Colin Ingram, 8.3 ov), 5-73 (Dewald Brevis, 12.5 ov), 6-75 (Azmatullah Omarzai, 13.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.4 Gone! You can only keep away new-ball Boult for so long! Conway backs away and comes down the track to this length ball around middle and off that's swinging away. Looks for an inside-out drive but gets a thick edge to the keeper, who sees the ball bounce out of his gloves but he grabs it at the second go 16/17.1 That is SENSATIONAL! Dewald Brevis with a screamer at deep cover! Full on the stumps and du Plessis backs away and goes inside out, but ends up slicing it a little. Brevis takes it high above his head while falling back and just throws it up in the air as he goes over the rope and then twists and dives forward to grab it. A very threatening innings comes to an end thanks to an amazing piece of athleticism 46/211.2 Gottim! That's an absolute ripper from Rabada! He has the last laugh after a few words exchanged with Bairstow earlier, and he does it with panache. It's a legcutter that angles in to pitch outside off and seams past the outside edge and just clips off stump as Bairstow has a late push at it. Rabada marking his comeback with big wickets! 82/3Extras5 (b 4, lb 1)TOTAL82/3 (11.3 Overs, RR: 7.13)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Devon Conway, 2.4 ov), 2-46 (Faf du Plessis, 7.1 ov), 3-82 (Jonny Bairstow, 11.2 ov)
