Keshav Maharaj 2-24(4 ov)
12.6
Maharaj to Gayle, no run, South Africa don't lose the review! This looked very close but umpire Reiffel made a good decision. Gayle wanted to sweep and he sat down to play the shot, but the front leg slipped and he lost balance, missing the sweep and being pinned around off-stump. The ball was crashing into the stumps but the impact was just outside off
12.5
Maharaj to Simmons, 1 run, drifting into the right hander, Simmons nudges it through mid-wicket
12.4
Maharaj to Gayle, 1 run, flighted and turning in, Gayle works it down to long-on
12.3
Maharaj to Gayle, no run, slower and around off, Gayle eases it towards extra cover
12.2
Maharaj to Pooran, out Caught by Miller!! That's Pooran in a nutshell. He comes in, looks promising and throws it away. On this occasion we cannot blame him as he had to go after the bowling as Simmons is struggling at the other end. But credit to Maharaj. He pushed it flatter and outside off, Pooran cross-bats it towards long-off and Miller runs to his left to take a well-judged catch. Pooran c Miller b Maharaj 12(7) [4s-2]
12.1
Maharaj to Simmons, 1 run, flatter and sliding on, Simmons makes room and punches to long-on

Maharaj to Simmons, no run, and another. South Africa must be enjoying this. Tossed up around off, Simmons angles it towards short third man and Pooran doesn't want to risk a single
10.5
Maharaj to Simmons, no run, and Simmons continues to block.. Straight back at the bowler
10.4
Maharaj to Pooran, 1 run, first ball and Pooran charges down. Now we know the reason why he has come above Gayle. Swipes it across the line and settles with a single to deep mid-wicket
10.3
Maharaj to Lewis, out Caught by Rabada!! And the pull brings about his downfall. Maharaj is pumped as he let's out a roar. Once more this is not all that short, but Lewis uses the crease to create his own length and pulls towards deep mid-wicket, not timed and Rabada takes a good low catch. A fine knock comes to an end and South Africa needed that. Lewis c Rabada b Maharaj 56(35) [4s-3 6s-6]
