Ottneil Baartman to Bevon Jacobs, out Caught by Dian Forrester!! Is that the game? Jacobs was looking dangerous. But Baartman comes back and sends him packing. Once again it is the hard length that works for him. Pounded into the three quarter region and Jacobs tries to repeat his shot off the back foot, but this time goes towards long-on and does not quite get the power to clear long-on, Forrester settles under it and reverse cups it safely.
