Kagiso Rabada to Bhanuka Rajapaksa, OUT! TAKEN! Kagiso Rabada is on fire! Two wickets in that over and South Africa are on top. The short stuff works now. Short ball, on middle.

Wiaan Mulder to Minod Bhanuka, OUT! There indeed is an edge and it is a good review from South Africa! Wiaan Mulder now and South Africa are all over the hosts! This is on a length, it lands on middle and then moves away. Bhanuka looks to defend, there is a noise as the ball passes the batter. The keeper takes it and it is a very confident appeal from the visitors. Nothing from the umpire. It is reviewed as Mulder and Heinrich Klaasen are quite sure. The review is a successful one as there is a spike as the ball goes past the bat!

26.1
Tabraiz Shamsi to Dasun Shanaka, OUT! TAKEN! It is a clean catch! Shanaka did not take the decision that well but he has to walk back! A short one, that was there to be hit. The ball though does not come off that well off the surface. It goes off the toe end towards deep square leg. The fielder there, George Linde, seems to have taken it with his dive to his left. The umpire takes it upstairs to check and replays show that it is a clean catch. Shanaka stands there for a minute, not sure if he is not happy with the decision or the shot but then walks back.

28.4
Tabraiz Shamsi to Charith Asalanka, OUT! TAKEN! Shamsi has the last laugh and that should be the game for South Africa, if it was not obvious before this wicket! On middle, tossed up. Charith Asalanka plays the slog sweep. It is the longer part of the ground and he holes out to the man in the deep. Kyle Verreynne, the substitute fielder, takes it. A really good innings from Charith Asalanka comes to an end. He fought a lone battle.
