    3.3 backs away before the ball is bowled. Bosch stays full on middle, and Madhevere is in a good position to loft it over cover or mid off. But the connection is not good, and easily taken by mid off on the edge of the circle. Elevation missing and that's the first Zimbabwe wicket down 18/1

    15.6 leg stump pegged back! The Bennett show ends, finally. Yorker around leg along with some pace taken off. Bennett tries to go over the leg side but he's through his shot way too early 122/4
    5.1 easy catch for Bosch as Madande goes down the track looking for an aggressive shot, but slices it high in the air instead. Good length ball angling in with some extra bounce and that does the trick. A hat-trick of 8s for Madande in the series 28/2
    8.1 straight down deep square leg's throat! Tossed up on the stumps. Raza gets in position to play the slog sweep. It's well-hit but the placement is poor, straight to Burger at square leg. Flat catch, taken reverse-cup style from near his face 44/3

    16.3 back of a length ball angling across. The batter moves to the off side and tries to pull it over the leg side. But it doesn't have the distance, despite hitting towards the shorter boundary. Taken at cow corner 123/5
    17.2 wide yorker. Dug away towards cover for a single. Wants two but there's no way Burl was coming back for two. Munyonga is halfway down for a second run before realising his partner isn't running back. Tries to make amends but too late. Easy run-out courtesy a smart slide-and-release from Linde 126/6

    1.4 Top-edges a pull, Raza runs back and takes a stunner! Short ball around chest-height, Pretorius tried to heave it with a horizontal bat from the crease, touch too early on it. Raza ran back from mid-on, waited for the ball to pass over his left shoulder and took it with a sideways tumble 6/1
    4.1 Another one for Maposa, gets it with a wide one. Three-quarter length, on the edge of the wide tramline and testing Hendricks' reach. He stood in front of off and looked to slap it square, feathered to the keeper. Maposa leaps and punches the air in delight 22/2

    15.3 Off stump sent for a walk, Hermann is on one knee and has to walk back. Ngarava has a small glance at the batter before looking away. Fuller side of length, lands on off and skids in, Hermann looked to slug it across the line again. Misses completely 128/3
