George Linde to Shaheen Afridi
7:45 PMWide Ball. Wicket! Stumped by Heinrich Klaasen. One Run. Was a length ball angling across Shaheen who looks to slog it away, was called a wide but Shaheen could not keep his balance, drags his foot slightly out of the crease and when he did try to drag it back he could only put it on the white line and nothing behind it as Klaasen whipped off the bails.

Kwena Maphaka to Mohammad Rizwan
7:36 PMNo Ball. Three Runs. NO-BALL for height!!! Was a high full toss around off, Rizwan slices the pull to cover and the batters run for a quick single, a direct hit at bowling end would have been the end of Rizwan but the fielder misses the stumps, instead the batters run through for a 2nd run as Rizwan had to put in the dive to complete the run, Klaasen could not gather it as Rizwan should have been run-out twice!
