    2.4 slaps it straight to mid-off, and it's a comfortable catch. SEC strike first, and a scratchy innings from Roy comes to an end early. Stepped away to try and clear mid-off, but never got underneath it to get the elevation to clear Kruger, who grasps it at hip height 17/1
    6.5 wider outside off, and Buttler holes out! Huge wicket for SEC and clever bowling from Dawson. Flighted it wider outside off, drawing Buttler outside his range, and he couldn't get the distance on the aerial drive. Comfortable catch at long-off and Dawson doesn't hide his delight 57/2
    8.6 uppishly driven back to the bowler, and while he doesn't catch it, he might have got a finger to it. It goes on to hit the stumps and van Buuren at the non-striker's end seemed to be tardy in getting back. This could be trouble for Royals. And it is! van Buuren is gone, falling in an unlucky manner, but SEC are surging once more 65/3
    9.6 tries a similar shot, looking to clear the straight boundary, but he doesn't get it all and long-on takes a catch perched on the edge of the boundary! Very brave of Harmer to toss it up in the same way, but the length wasn't as full as Miller anticipated, and he got more height than distance on it 76/4
    17.5 slapped straight to cover, who takes a simple catch. Worrall's streak of not going wicketless this SA20 is salvaged off his penultimate ball. VIlas just couldn't find the height to clear the infield, and pays the price. Looks accusingly at his bat, but he goes after an enterprising innings 141/6
    16.2 Baartman responds with a wicket! He tried to scoop it behind the stumps, but got a bottom edge and could only lap it straight up, as the wicketkeeper takes a comfortable catch 125/5

    18.3 goes up and over but sends it straight down long-off's throat. It looked like it was in the slot but he doesn't get it out of the middle and offers a simple catch to Aiden Markram 144/7

    5.2 beautiful! What a delivery! Seamed and nipped back in sharply and Hermann played completely down the wrong line. Yusuf makes a mess of his stumps and the Royals have their first breakthrough 33/1
    7.4 tried to heave it through the onside and gets a top edge. Skies it straight up and throws his wicket away. He looks really annoyed with himself but it was an innings that never really got going 49/2
    19.1 Bavuma finds the throat of long-on, and Peter strikes with his first delivery. Been a struggle of an innings for Temba, 33 off 30, but SEC still arguably favourites to win this 152/5
    15.1 Markram holes out to long-off first ball after the resumption. SEC were already slightly behind on the DLS and this won't help. Never looked like he had enough on this to clear the rope, and it's a precious wicket for the Royals 112/3
    18.2 it was in the slot but Stubbs has top-edged this, and Buttler comes around to take a fairly simple catch. Phehlukwayo has struck at a vital time, and the Royals will suddenly feel they're back on top again 138/4
