- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR34.5 Rickelton drags on! He misses his maiden century by nine runs! This is tossed up full and wide and Rickelton looked to slap it away but gets an under edge onto the stumps. Walks off disappointed, but he has played a very important role here for South Africa 191/46.4 Adair gets the breakthrough! Bangs it in short and the change of tactics works for Ireland! De Zorzi was swivelling and looking to pull but gets a top edge and it flies to deep backward square where Young makes no mistake. Settles under it and tumbles backwards as he grabs it 31/17.4 Knocks him over! Nothing saving Bavuma this time! On a length outside off, and it seams in through Bavuma's defence. Beaut of a delivery there! 36/28.6 Taken at second slip! South Africa's watchful start is coming undone. This is a length ball outside off that's just moving away from the batter, who pokes at it and gets a thick edge. Four-ball duck for van der Dussen 39/335.5 Another one goes down and both the set batters are now gone. Stubbs is shell-shocked, he doesn't want to go off. Back of a length ball on off, he pulls it with authority but straight to Balbirnie at short midwicket who takes a good catch low to his right. So after no wickets in close to 25 overs, Ireland have two in two 198/541.4 And just like that, another South Africa wicket goes down. Pace off, into the surface outside off. Mulder does not account for the change of pace, is into his pull early and ends up presenting deep midwicket a simple catch 212/737.3 Another one bites the dust! Fuller and slower outside off. He does not pick it again, is way too early on his drive and ends up spooning the simplest of catches to Balbirnie at short cover. SA have lost three wickets for 10 runs now. 201/648.2 Nails the pull but straight to Balbirnie at short midwicket. He just had to place that ball a metre left or right of that fielder. Hits it straight to him and Balbirnie completes a fourth catch. Was a back of a length ball that Fortuin absolutely tonked and can't believe he's hit it to the fielder 254/944.3 Looks to go deep but the ball goes only as far as deep midwicket. Slower back of a length ball outside off, he pulls but is is early into his shot and Tector makes no mistake. 229/8Extras9 (b 1, lb 2, w 6)TOTAL271/9 (50 Overs, RR: 5.42)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Tony de Zorzi, 6.4 ov), 2-36 (Temba Bavuma, 7.4 ov), 3-39 (Rassie van der Dussen, 8.6 ov), 4-191 (Ryan Rickelton, 34.5 ov), 5-198 (Tristan Stubbs, 35.5 ov), 6-201 (Andile Phehlukwayo, 37.3 ov), 7-212 (Wiaan Mulder, 41.4 ov), 8-229 (Lizaad Williams, 44.3 ov), 9-254 (Bjorn Fortuin, 48.2 ov)
