- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR19.3 O'Dowd is finally run out after lives I've lost count of! Edwards bunted this yorker down to long-on and there was no harm in trying for the second with just three balls to go. But an accurate throw means O'Dowd is well short. Superb innings that kept the innings together until the last over 157/45.4 slower bouncer, hard to sum up how slow it was, and Myburgh struggles to keep his hands back trying to uppercut it over point, but can't get any power behind the shot and it lobs up gently to the point fielder on the ring. Clever from Frylinck, easy catch for Baard. 42/17.2 short on fifth stump, tries to cut this but it climbs on him and winds up slashing it to deep third man. Fielder is stationed fine on the rope and it finds him to perfection. Scholtz with safe hands two yards inside the rope with the floppy hat takes it at chest height. 55/217.4 holes out to deep midwicket this time, easy catch. Slow and into the pitch on short of length, Ackermann has to go after this one but he doesn't get enough to clear the fielder in the deep 137/3Extras13 (b 1, lb 4, w 8)TOTAL164/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.2)Fall of wickets: 1-42 (Stephan Myburgh, 5.4 ov), 2-55 (Roelof van der Merwe, 7.2 ov), 3-137 (Colin Ackermann, 17.4 ov), 4-157 (Max O'Dowd, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.2 full on the stumps, Baard tries to flick across the line and misses, castled. 52/34.3 back of a length on fifth stump, Green goes to pull and drags on. Didn't come on to the bat as he expected and a bottom edge is the result. 34/17.1 Williams won't be posting this shot on the Instagram stories later tonight... Gentle flighted ball on fourth stump on a good length, tries an almighty slog, the length wasn't nearly full enough for the shot and the timber is rattled. Williams was batting with a cap on and immediately puts his hand over his face to express his personal disgust. 47/216.5 edged behind, the finger goes up, but Erasmus doesn't seem convinced. He thinks and eventually reviews it. The ball stayed a bit low outside off as Erasmus went after it, and got an under edge, UltraEdge confirms 145/4Extras9 (b 2, lb 2, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL166/4 (19 Overs, RR: 8.73)Fall of wickets: 1-34 (Zane Green, 4.3 ov), 2-47 (Craig Williams, 7.1 ov), 3-52 (Stephan Baard, 8.2 ov), 4-145 (Gerhard Erasmus, 16.5 ov)
