    8.6 stumped on second attempt! The Luus drop doesn't cost them too much. She was down the track again, looking to target that midwicket area, But Charani beat her in the air, then off the pitch, and turned it past her outside edge. Ghosh fumbles the ball at first but recovers and comfortably stumps Luus, who was way down the track. 75/1
    10.4 yorks herself! Charani went fullish and fast, and Brits shuffled down the track without a ton of commitment, and this one just shoots between bat and boots and into middle stump. Charani gets another 81/2
    11.3 a reverse-sweep right into the hands of short fine leg as if this was catching practice. It's a tough-ish shot to play against the turn, and Deepti got this one to rip a little bit from outside off stump. Dercksen ends up hitting it with the toe end I think, and the fielder only has to take a step forward to snaffle it 82/3
    15.1 slows this right down and pings the middle stump of Bosch. This was just a gentle offbreak, pitching outside off and turning in. But Deepti had seen Bosch coming so had pulled the length and the pace back a touch I think. Bosch gets into a tangle when she realises she's not getting to the pitch of this, and can't get her bat down in time to a ball that has an appointment with the woodwork 106/4
    17.2 another catchng-practice wicket. Tryon was completely fooled by the slower one from Renuka there, and spooned it up to cover who only had to take two steps in to snatch this. A gentle dismissal 122/5
    17.5 was that going down leg? No, says the umpire, and raises her finger. This is length, angled into leg. de Klerk went for a pull and missed, and was hit on the inside of her front thigh. Would have gone on to clip the top of leg I think. de Klerk goes and SA lose a bit more momentum 124/6

    2.2 not a great ball, but that's.a sharp catch at short fine and Shafali Verma is out. This was full and pushed into the legs, and Verma connected nicely with a sweep. Her problem is she hasn't kept it down, and Tryon is waiting at short fine. SHe falls over as she clings on to the ball, which was traveling quickly. 12/1
    7.3 holes out to long on! She was through that shot very early as this length ball on the stumps stopped on her a little bit. She was looking for a big shot down the ground but it goes high in the air, and it's Tryon completing her third catch of the afternoon, having run in about five metres 38/3
    3.3 pulled to deep square leg where Tryon is there again to swallow a second catch. Shortish ball, cross-seam so there may have been a touch of extra bounce. Rodrigues pulls hard but it comes off the top half of the bat and floats out to Tryon, who has to cover about six or seven metres forward to get under that 21/2
    12.2 you can generally count on Mlaba in the middle overs. Tosses one up tantalisingly, gives it a good old rip, and gets it to dip and grip away from Harman, who is down the track trying to murder this over cow corner. Takes the leading edge and floats out to the edge of the circle, where Wolvaardt is waiting with open arms. Another big dent in India's chase 76/4

    15.3 caught in front! This was flat and at the stumps, without being ultra quick. Fulmali tried to slam that square on the legside and is hit on the body in front of middle and leg. The umpire didn't take long to lift the finger 99/5
    17.5 that is a wonderful stumping from Jafta! Always special when you do so off a seamer. Sharma was down the track a bit and de Klerk bowled an offcutter I think, to beat the batter. Jafta collects cleanly well down the off side after Sharma has missed, and whips off the bails in one swift motion. 118/6

    18.1 Mlaba strikes again. This is sloow through the air, and Reddy is down the track but no where close to the pitch of this ball. Mlaba gets it to dip and Reddy's swipe doesn't come close to making contact. It pings middle stump instead. 119/7
    18.5 had to happen. This was a run out with both batters having agreed - seemingly - that they would run no matter what. Gaud only pushed this ball back to Mlaba, so it's an easy run out at the non-striker's. But at least Ghosh is on strike next ball 119/8
