Riaz to ten Doeschate, out Bowled!! He's making this a habit is Wahab Riaz. Angles in from wide of the crease, hits the good length area and scissors away ever so slightly to thrash the top of off. Ten Doeschate stood back in anticipation of a big hit, but couldn't get anywhere close. ten Doeschate b Riaz 0(2)

Riaz to Marais, out Bowled!! This is reverse swing at its very best. Riaz went wide of the crease and pounded it on a fullish length to extract enough reverse for the ball to tail just that little bit late to crash into middle and leg. Marais had his stumps exposed and had no clue about this. A wild swing and he missed it by a long way. Marais b Riaz 2(4)

Magala to Ben Dunk, out Caught by Riaz!! Low full toss wide of off and Ben Dunk toe-ends the power hit straight into the diving hands of Riaz at extra cover.

W
Riaz to Smuts, out Caught by Janneman Malan!! Looks to slog and miscues it into the air, came off the thick toe-end and long-on fielder had enough time to get under it. Smuts cleared his front leg and didn't quite get the length he wanted, was a little too full for his liking maybe and it came off the toe-edge. Smuts c Janneman Malan b Riaz 7(9)

W
Gqamane to Matthew Breetzke, out Caught&Bowled!! Change of pace and Breetzke's too early into his shot. Looks to slog over mid-wicket and ekes out a thick leading edge that's been gobbled by the bowler in his followthrough. Gqamane didn't have to run too much and his early call meant he had no interruptions ambling forward. Matthew Breetzke c and b Gqamane 64(40) [4s-7 6s-2]

Riaz to Ben Dunk, FOUR, not sure if Dunk watched this but he'll take the final outcome with both hands. Short and angling into the ribcage, Dunk seemed to have taken his eyes off momentarily but as he maintains a clean swivel - on the pull - which helps him make enough contact for a one bounce four over square leg
4.1

1.3
Nortje to Ben Dunk, 1 run, pushed to mid-off and a direct hit at the bowling end could have been curtains for Ben Dunk. Nawaz was quick to get to the ball but he had too much momentum running towards the stumps which hampered his attempt at the direct hit
