Temba Bavuma 22(28)
8.1
Allah Ghazanfar to Bavuma, out Bowled!! Knocked him over! Allah Ghazanfar was testing Bavuma around the off-stump channel and this time he outfoxes him. Bowls this slower through the air and on a fuller length outside off. Bavuma is not sure whether it will slide on or turn in. He leans ahead tentatively to block but the ball turns in a bit. He has left a bat-pad gap and the ball goes through that to crash into the off-stump. Brilliant bowling from Allah Ghazanfar. Bavuma b Allah Ghazanfar 22(28) [4s-3]
