WAgarwal c du Plessis b Maharaj
Maharaj to Agarwal, out Caught by du Plessis!! Great thrill for Maharaj who's found Agarwal's edge for a simple catch at slip. This is a beautiful delivery. Went up and down quickly with the flight and dip, kicked up at Agarwal from a length and almost took the edge near the bat shoulder. Even taking his bottom hand off came to no avail. Agarwal very disappointed on the way back. Agarwal c du Plessis b Maharaj 7(31) [4s-1]

7.54
Maharaj to Agarwal, FOUR, premeditates the paddle-sweep and executes it well, even with his head turned the other way. Bent across and managed to guide it fine enough
7.4
Maharaj to Agarwal, no run, drifting in on middle and leg, Agarwal turns it to midwicket
7.3
Maharaj to Agarwal, no run, pulls the length back a touch but Agarwal has it covered
7.2
Maharaj to Agarwal, no run, floated up just outside off, smothered into the off-side
7.1
Maharaj to Rohit, 1 run, turn for Maharaj which allows him to exploit Rohit's defence - which is often prone to getting opened up with the front leg moving leg side. It takes a thick outside edge and runs past slip
6.5
Philander to Agarwal, no run, good length ball on off, defended into the off-side
6.4
Philander to Agarwal, no run, back of a length delivery on off, blocked down the pitch from the crease

Philander to Agarwal, no run, length ball slanting in on middle, bat in front of pad from Agarwal as he defends firmly
6.2
Philander to Agarwal, 2 runs, first runs off Philander as he strays into Agarwal's pads. Clipped away wide of fine leg
6.1
Philander to Agarwal, no run, back of a length delivery curving in on off, chopped to point
5.66
Maharaj to Rohit, SIX, sweeps this and sweeps this handsomely. Down on one knee to shovel it over square leg. The ball was drifting in on middle from Maharaj, so Rohit did well to get his front leg out of the way for a clean brooming job
5.2
Maharaj to Agarwal, no run, thick edge from Agarwal which dies in front of slip. Nice loop from Maharaj, hanging it up around off, before getting it to grip on Agarwal
5.1
Maharaj to Rohit, 1 run, the strike finally turns as Rohit pushes this flighted ball to long-off for a single
4.5
Philander to Agarwal, no run, pitched up just outside off, driven to short cover
4.4
Philander to Agarwal, no run, back of a length delivery just a touch outside off, which is more than Agarwal has been afforded so far in this spell. So he tries to make the most of it, but can't carve his cut past backward point
4.3
Philander to Agarwal, no run, works him round the front pad to midwicket. 15 balls in from this end, and still the strike hasn't changed
4.2
Philander to Agarwal, no run, just a shade under 130 clicks, full delivery on off stump which stays a touch low, Agarwal defends to silly mid-on
4.1
Philander to Agarwal, no run, gripping contest this. Philander's at Agarwal all the time. Length ball on middle, turned to midwicket
3.6
Maharaj to Rohit, no run, slides in with the arm towards off stump, Rohit only picked the variation off the pitch and adjusted belatedly to defend
2.5
Philander to Agarwal, no run, testing him with almost every ball. Excellent from Philander. Even a pace of 129kph is enough to keep Agarwal honest. Length ball around off, tentatively defended with a forward step
2.4
Philander to Agarwal, no run, defended towards point
2.3
Philander to Agarwal, no run, good length delivery outside off, dragged back off a thick inside edge by Agarwal who's a bit reckless with the way he angles his bat. It bounces back into his body
2.2
Philander to Agarwal, no run, full ball on off stump, Agarwal defends on the front foot
2.1
Philander to Agarwal, no run, there he is, working the seam again. Comes wobbling out of his fingers and decks away from Agarwal's forward defence to beat his outside edge
1.6
Maharaj to Rohit, no run, defended into the off-side
0.5
Philander to Agarwal, no run, good length delivery that nibbles away off the seam past Agarwal's outside edge. Typical Philander this, having the seam do the work for him
