- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.2 drags this back onto the stumps! Saw Rickelton run down the pitch so sprayed this across, he had to reach out for it but didn't get to the pitch as he tried to hit this with a horizontal bat, ended up getting an inside edge that rolled back to hit timber. Timely strike. 61/114 slaps this to point, takes off blindly for a non-existent run, turned back late as the non-striker clearly said no. The throw was flat and accurate and the keeper whipped the bails off even though he took a split-second longer. 115/117.3 WHAT.A.CATCH! Simply stunning at deep midwicket. Sun in his eyes, ran in forward, stopped and then came forward to take this. Was flicked but don't think Vilas struck it as well as he would've liked. 149/3Extras8 (lb 1, w 7)TOTAL173/3 (20 Overs, RR: 8.65)Fall of wickets: 1-61 (Ryan Rickelton, 7.2 ov), 2-115 (Rassie van der Dussen, 13.6 ov), 3-149 (Dane Vilas, 17.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.1 this is absolutely magnificent from Rabada! The batsman just doesn't pick this, thinks this was a beamer but the ball honed in to the base of middle and knocked it back. He was clearly blinded by something, took his eyes away looking to duck. Oh, dear. 13/22.2 beaten for pace, looked to fetch the pull from outside off, got it high on the bat and mid-on running backwards took a simple catch. 5/19.2 walks across and muscles this to deep midwicket where the fielder has taken an absolute blinder diving forward. The sun was in his eyes too, but then the umpires aren't quite sure so have gone upstairs. Soft signal out, let's see if they have conclusive evidence to overturn. Looks like there isn't any, straight into the hand, clean catch. On ya bike, Mr Duckett. 39/58.2 would you believe it? This length ball angles in to beat his short-arm jab and deflects to the boundary, but has clipped the right bail along the way. Just the bail. 33/38.3 struck on the pad and that's plumb in front. Wicket-to-wicket stuff. Length ball that angles in, Jonker steps out and decides the length isn't quite there to swing so looks to tuck it square, plays all around it, misses and this would've crashed into the stumps 33/410.3 hoicked across the line and he ends up hitting this straight to deep midwicket. 48/613.1 doesn't get to the pitch, swings blindly and holes out to long-on. 62/811.2 got him! This is a wrong'un, but the batsman didn't pick it, stepped out to take this on the full. Played too early and saw the ball deflect off a thin inside edge onto the stumps 56/716.4 backs away to swing blindly, misses and the middle stump takes a walk. Jozi Stars also take a bonus point 92/1014.3 the off stump has been flattened. Full, straight, he played down the wrong line and saw this rattle the furniture behind. Pure pace, raw pace.
