    29.4 sharp catch at bat pad. 84/3
    23 outside the off stump and moving away from the batsman. Diepeveen moves across and for some strange reason wants to drive it late. He gets an outside edge to second slip and has to measure the hard yards back to the pavilion 82/2
    30.2 straight after lunch Ireland take another wicket. Great delivery from Johnston edged behind and a regulation catch by the keeper. 84/4
