    7.4 gone this time! Length delivery just outside off stump that holds in the surface. Stirling comes down the track and throws his hands at it. But he does not get the right contact and ends up slicing it straight to extra cover 34/4
    3.1 chops it on! Back of a length delivery just outside off stump. Ingram looks to force the issue through the off side but neither has the length nor the width for it. The ball also seems to come on a little slower, meaning that Ingram can only drag his cut stroke onto his stumps! 14/1
    5.1 but the change of bat does not do the trick for King! Length delivery just outside off stump that sticks in the surface a touch. King looks to go downtown but the tennis-ball bounce means that he can only splice it straight to Jordan at mid off! 24/2
    5.2 and he departs first ball! Length delivery in the channel that nips away ever so slightly. The length is so perfect that Esterhuizen has no option but to play at it. The ball kisses the outside edge and floats through to first slip, where Dawson does the rest! 24/3
    10.2 huge appeal, and given! Back of a length delivery angled into the batter on middle and leg stump. Akeal is caught on the crease and plays all over it as the ball raps him on the pads. Rehan goes up, and the umpire agrees, almost instantaneously. Akeal, though, wants to have another look. Nothing on Ultra Edge, and three reds on Ball Tracking too! Akeal has to go! 56/5
    11.5 knocks him over with a ripper! Searing yorker that hones in on off stump. Russell backs away again and looks to carve it past point. But he is a little late on the stroke and only manages an inside edge that flattens off stump! Excellent change of length by Jordan and he is pumped! 66/6
    13.2 straight to long off! In the slot outside off stump and Narine's eyes light up. He tries to smash it over long off but does not quite get the elevation, offering Erasmus some catching practice on the fence in the end! The Knight Riders are in a LOT of trouble now! 78/7
    19.4 edged and taken! Back of a length delivery outside off stump that zips through. Farid has an old-fashioned slog at it and only gets a feather through to Pope 110/9
    17.1 cleans him up! Length delivery slanted into the batter on middle and leg stump. Ali has a swipe across the line but is awfully late on the stroke. The ball breezes past the bat, kisses the thigh pad and then dislodges the middle and off stump bail! 91/8

    11.4 dragged on! Length delivery just outside off stump that spins into the batter. Vince tries to work it into the leg side but is fractionally late on the stroke, meaning that the ball takes the inside edge and crashes into the stumps! 94/2
    2.5 gone this time! Back of a length delivery outside off stump that sticks in the surface. Rehan continues swinging wildly and this time, gets a top edge that spoons towards cover point. King does the rest and sends Rehan on his way! 19/1
    11.6 cleans Pope up with a beauty! Flighted deliciously on a full length outside off stump. Pope advances but he is deceived in the air completely. He does not get to the pitch of the ball and that allows the ball to rip between his bat and pad, and smash into the stumps! 95/3
    12.1 length delivery outside off stump. Erasmus has a waft at it and chops it back to the keeper, who quickly whips off the bails. The question, though, is whether Erasmus has dragged his back foot out of his crease. And, it looks like the keeper has done brilliantly here! Erasmus' foot is on the line, and he will have to depart! 95/4
