- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.2 tossed up nicely and he hits it straight to the fielder at extra cover. 72/18 hits in the air down to long off and taken by the fielder. 82/210 a silly dismissal, looks to move across to the off side but then the bowler bowls it bit wider and he can only guide it to short thirdman's hands. 101/316.2 moves across his stumps and scoops it high in the air down to fine leg and taken. 164/514.2 hit in the air to the sweeper cover, who runs in to take the catch on the second attempt. 149/418.3 the middle stump lies flat on the ground, misses the yorker. 174/816.4 bulls eye at the bowlers end. Driven firmly to mid-off and confusion in the middle and the fielder as a lot of time to take aim and throw. 165/617.4 hits it high in the air down to long on and taken. 171/719.5 miscues the pull shot, gets the top edge behind point and taken. 182/9Extras10 (lb 1, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL186/9 (20 Overs, RR: 9.3)Fall of wickets: 1-72 (Janneman Malan, 6.2 ov), 2-82 (Quinton de Kock, 7.6 ov), 3-101 (Marques Ackerman, 9.6 ov), 4-149 (Asif Ali, 14.2 ov), 5-164 (Liam Livingstone, 16.2 ov), 6-165 (Wahab Riaz, 16.4 ov), 7-171 (Sisanda Magala, 17.4 ov), 8-174 (George Linde, 18.3 ov), 9-182 (Gregory Mahlokwana, 19.5 ov)
