Abell was the fielder. 10/15.3 Jansen picked up a big wicket! Back of length, went for the big shot across the line, got the top edge and Dawson at mid-on took a simple catch 43/29.6 That is a soft dismissal! Slower full toss just outside off, Livingstone can hit that one anywhere but he hits that straight in the hands of Markram at extra cover who took a sharp catch 79/312 Dawson gets a big one. Curran who was looking very dangerous has gone now. Excellent gloves work behind the stumps and superb thinking by bowler, was an arm ball, came down the wicket to play a big shot, beaten down the leg side and keeper whipped off the bails in a flash 96/419.5 That looks out! Full ball on middle stump, flicked away to deep midwicket and coming back for the 2nd run to hold the strike, lovely pick up and flat throw in the gloves of keeper, who breaks the stumps, Pollard dives in but looks short, asked for the tv umpire and replay confirms that he was well short of crease. Now 6 needed on the last ball. 170/716.4 Baartman strikes in time! Good short ball, goes for the pull shot, gets the top edge and keeper takes the catch behind the stumps, loud shout for caught behind and up goes the finger.
