    10.2 Over the wicket, pace-off shortish ball into the body, he doesn't hold himself back and goes for a bottom-wristed slog towards deep midwicket, fielder in the deep charges in and takes a sprawling catch, Mukhtar Ahmed with a wonderful effort in the deep, third umpire confirming if it's a clean catch, it almost popped out but he made sure he didn't grass it, much-needed breakthrough for WF and an opportunity to apply brakes to the exponentially high scoring rate. Some relief for WF. Mukhtar timed his dive well, the ball was swooping like a falling star 109/1
    18.3 Gone after doing plenty of damage, pranced down and scythes it straight to Smith at cover who takes a sharp catch. Faf was outside his crease but just couldn't clear the fielder inside the ring. What an innings, captain's knock! Extraordinary stuff from South Africa's former captain 189/4
    11.6 That looks stone dead, bowls it fuller on the pads, he was stuck deep in the crease and it didn't spin much, Akeal Hosen producing his magic, lovely loop and he's pinned right in front of middle stump, no hesitation from the umpire who raises the finger without any deal, superbly bowled, so bit of a comeback from WF 114/2
    16.5 Would have been a wide had he left that alone, he bowls to his field and the batter plinks it out to deep cover where Mukhtar takes a brilliant running catch, covered faired bit of ground, safe outfielder, plan worked, this is what Dill was trying for so long, Stoinis couldn't generate enough power and has to take the long walk back to the pavilion 176/3

    19.1 Is that a clean catch at deep midwicket? Mukhtar pouched it at deep midwicket, was losing balance, went outside, then came back in to complete the catch. Tracked the ball all the way through the bat and in the air, Savage thought he got plenty on it but Mukhtar has taken a gem in the outfield, he is having a good day in the outfield. It was shortish at his body, shot was on 193/5
