- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR34.6 gloved to the keeper! Ayub gets Bosched! Dug in from round the wicket and he scoops it up tamely to Klaasen looking to help it up and away to fine leg. Fine knock, though, and he gets an ovation as he walks off. Maiden international wicket for the debutant 208/30.2 edged to a tumbling second slip! Abdullah Shafique has another duck! Lovely line, angling in at the top of off, taking the splice of an uncertain poke, Markram falls across first slip to scoop up the early offering! 1/122.3 short, and slapped to short midwicket! The blow to the fingers may have unsettled him, but that's a fine follow-up from Maphaka, short and rushing into his bat as he swings across the line. The end of a fine knock... 115/237.6 top-edged and taken! The extra ball in the over buys Fortuin a wicket. Rizwan goes, the big one for SA. Aimed the slog-sweep but this skidded on outside off, went almost straight up, Rabada jogging around from short third to take the catch 223/535.3 charges down, Ghulam goes first ball! He played a match-shaping cameo the other night, but doesn't come off here on the Highveld. On the run, heaving to leg, sliced high but without any distance to be caught in the covers. One brings two for SA 209/445.5 goes for the same ball, and Salman holes out! Wide line and he tries to get it up and over, not a clean connection and there's a man out there waiting for a simple catch. Some decent tonking from the No. 6, though 297/646.1 swatted back, Jansen plucks it above his head! Big offcutter and Tayyab couldn't get any timing. Still, it would have cleared most bowlers in their follow through, but not 6ft 8in Marco Jansen, who sticks up his paws and grabs it, easy as you like 298/845.6 slogged straight to the same fielder! A booming hoick across the line, goes high but not far enough. Van der Dussen settles under it for a replica take. First-baller for Afridi, Rabada strikes again at the death 297/746.3 another one goes, slapped to deep midwicket! Hard length and he hauls it high into the leg side but again doesn't have the connection. That's four wickets in five legitimate balls 302/9Extras17 (b 1, lb 1, w 15)TOTAL308/9 (47 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Abdullah Shafique, 0.2 ov), 2-115 (Babar Azam, 22.3 ov), 3-208 (Saim Ayub, 34.6 ov), 4-209 (Kamran Ghulam, 35.3 ov), 5-223 (Mohammad Rizwan, 37.6 ov), 6-297 (Salman Agha, 45.5 ov), 7-297 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 45.6 ov), 8-298 (Tayyab Tahir, 46.1 ov), 9-302 (Mohammad Hasnain, 46.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.3 vicious bouncer! That's brutal from Afridi! Over the wicket, angled into the ribs, lifting sharply, cramping the batter for room, he flung his hands up in a reflexive defensive prod, and the bowler was on hand to gallop through and complete the take! 44/23.2 in the air, straight to backward point! Bavuma wasn't quite to the pitch as Naseem found good shape on his outswinger, he opened the face as the ball arrived and Ayub was in the game once more! 25/119.5 pinned dead in front! Rassie was looking to work that through fine leg, and that is where the ball ends up, but not before the umpire's finger goes up! He was walking across to off, no bat involved... this is indeed curtains! Right on his toes 120/415.1 dragged down, hauled straight to deep midwicket! Filth gets wickets! That's the sort of pie your part-timer legspinner will serve up in a club game... with the same result! Markram's eyes lit up, he threw everything at it, but it came off the toe... whoops, Sufiyan strikes with his first ball! 80/3Extras8 (lb 2, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL121/4 (19.6 Overs, RR: 6.05)Fall of wickets: 1-25 (Temba Bavuma, 3.2 ov), 2-44 (Tony de Zorzi, 6.3 ov), 3-80 (Aiden Markram, 15.1 ov), 4-120 (Rassie van der Dussen, 19.5 ov)
