7.1 to AD Hales, Ellis juggles a superb catch! A sky ball hit miles in the air and he held on at deep square. A length ball on off, he got under it trying to heave over midwicket, he middled it but hit it high to deep square, Ellis ran in, had it drift away from him, he took two bites and some how clung on falling to his left. 64/1 7.3 to O Davies, caught behind! Short ball does it again to Davies! A bouncer on off, he rises with it awkwardly trying to fend away, catches the shoulder of the bat and McDermott diving forward takes the catch. 65/2 7.5 to UT Khawaja, bowled him off the inside edge! Three in the over for Boland! Good length angled across him on a fourth stump line, Khawaja was caught on the crease and played the wrong line, got an inside edge onto middle and off!. 66/3 17.3 to SW Billings, 50 and out! Top edge straight up! Short slower ball wide of off, well bowled, Billing tried to stand up and flat bat it over mid on but got a top edge straight up and McDermott barely has to move. Simple catch. 143/5
Nathan Ellis	4	0	35	1	8.75	9	3	1	4	0
16.3 to CJ Ferguson, chopped on! Ferguson was struggling. He charged at a yorker outside off, got a thick inside edge and it ricocheted onto the stumps. 134/4

0.1 to WG Jacks, Bowled him! Too quick, too good! Full inswinger at speed on the money, tailed in late as he lunged forward, huge gap between bat and pad and it crashed into the middle and leg. 0/1

2.4 to DJM Short, holes out to mid on! Hales takes a good catch just above the turf! A back of a length ball on leg, he tried to muscle this over wide mid on and miscued it completely, Hales moves to his left and takes it just above the ground. 13/2
Ben Cutting	3	0	22	0	7.33	4	0	1	0	0
Tanveer Sangha	4	0	45	2	11.25	7	3	3	2	0
12.5 to DJ Malan, miscues a reverse sweep to backward point! Malan said 'Oh no!' as soon as he made contact. It was premeditated but it wasn't quite the length, he went through with it on the up and mis hit it to McAndrew at backward point who took an easy catch. 122/3 16.3 to BR McDermott, top edge balloons to backward point! He didn't make the most of his luck previous ball. Looped leg break wide of off, he tried to loft over cover, got a thick top edge and it floated to Davies at backward point. 165/4
