- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.4 taken at long-on! Peter strikes in his first over on debut. He bowled full and slightly wide of off, as King squatted and went slogging across the line. He had to fetch it from wide outside, though, and he couldn't clear long-on, where Mulder took it with a reverse cup over his head 54/23.4 Makes room… and finds deep square leg! The ball was in the air for a while, and the man at deep-square leg took a good few steps forward while keeping his eyes on the ball all along. 26/18.5 taken at deep square leg! Peter strikes in his second over too. Nearly a collision between deep square leg moving to his left, and fine leg to his right. Eventually, it was Rickelton at the former position who took it, as Mayers went pulling at this short ball on middle and leg. The ball went pretty high this time, and didn't have as much power as the hit off the last ball 83/314.5 LBW given! And for a rare occasion the batter does not review. Full ball on middle, with pace off. He tried to flick but misses it. Hits his pad and the umpire raises the finger. But should Fletcher have reviewed? Appeared to be missing leg stump but ball-tracking says it would've clipped leg stump 139/418.6 finally a wicket as he holes out at wide long off. Amdile bowled it full and quite wide, and Shepherd was in the mood to keep hitting. Sliced to the outfielder who takes a reverse-cup catch 202/519.3 holes out to deep midwicket and Allen goes for a first-baller. Slower ball full on middle, and he toe-ends a shot over to the leg side. 205/619.4 bowls from around the stumps, and bowls it full and wide outside off. It's the cutter as well and the left-handed Hosein gets an outside edge to the keeper 205/7Extras8 (lb 1, w 7)TOTAL207/7 (20 Overs, RR: 10.35)Fall of wickets: 1-26 (Johnson Charles, 3.4 ov), 2-54 (Brandon King, 6.4 ov), 3-83 (Kyle Mayers, 8.5 ov), 4-139 (Andre Fletcher, 14.5 ov), 5-202 (Romario Shepherd, 18.6 ov), 6-205 (Fabian Allen, 19.3 ov), 7-205 (Akeal Hosein, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.3 got him! Chase strikes too. He bowled full and flat on middle, seeing Hendricks get across the stumps early. The latter went for the sweep presumably behind square, but was beaten because it seemed like a quicker and a seam-up delivery from Chase. The ball went on to hit the middle stump 83/24.6 bowled him! The ball keeps low, and takes the bottom edge. De Kock wanted more despite hitting 40 of his 41 runs in boundaries, and hence backed away early. Hosein bowled on a length on middle, with the ball just about hinting to turn in. But the lack of bounce meant de Kock was beaten, and the ball ended up hitting middle and leg stumps 81/111.6 short and wide. Rickelton tries to slap it over point but ends up scooping a shot high up for cover to get under it. WI are fighting back with every over! 124/49.5 punched to deep backward point... and this could be a run-out! West Indies are celebrating already. Ah, and they are right! Breetzke is well short of the crease even while diving, as Fletcher breaks the stumps. Good, flat throw from Joseph, as Fletcher collects the ball in front of the stumps. Chase had bowled short and around sixth stump, as Breetzke punched hard to play behind point, only to risk a second and fall short 113/316.3 another full toss, wider outside off this time, and van der Dussen clatters a flat-batted shot straight down long off's throat! Akeal Hosen jumps standing close to the rope to take the catch and Rassie's promisijng innings comes to a close 166/614.3 full and wide outside off. Phehlukwayo throws his hands at this to slap an uppish shot over cover but Shamar Joseph takes a stunning catch in the deep! Gives out a kiss to the crowd after the grab. He moved to his right and had to dive diagonally forward to complete the take. 138/516.6 SA are crumbling! And Motie has another! Full ball outside off stump and Mulder ends up smacking an aggressive shot to long-off again! 167/7Extras24 (lb 8, nb 3, w 13)TOTAL191/7 (20 Overs, RR: 9.55)Fall of wickets: 1-81 (Quinton de Kock, 4.6 ov), 2-83 (Reeza Hendricks, 5.3 ov), 3-113 (Matthew Breetzke, 9.5 ov), 4-124 (Ryan Rickelton, 11.6 ov), 5-138 (Andile Phehlukwayo, 14.3 ov), 6-166 (Rassie van der Dussen, 16.3 ov), 7-167 (Wiaan Mulder, 16.6 ov)
