Innings Highlights

Over No.Event TypeEventTeam Score
103.2OUTRahat Ali to Kyle Abbott, out Bowled!! Smiles all around for Rahat as he ends with a 6 wicket haul. This was the in-dipper from Rahat Ali, pitches on off and zips back in, keeps a tad low as well. Abbott was late in bringing his bat down, the off-stump is sent cart-wheeling out of the ground. SA fold up on 409. Kyle Abbott b Rahat Ali 13(28) [4s-1]409/10
102.5FOURAjmal to Steyn, FOUR, nicely done by Steyn, Ajmal fires one on the pads, Steyn shuffles across and clips it very fine, the ball races away to the fence in a hurry409/9
101.3OUTRahat Ali to Kleinveldt, out Caught by Ajmal!! Rahat Ali has 5 wickets! He is absolutely chuffed with his efforts! This was banged in short and just outside off, Kleinveldt was cramped for room as he went for the pull, ends up spooning a simple catch to Ajmal at mid-on. A five wicket haul after a wicketless debut at the Wanderers for Rahat Ali. Kleinveldt c Ajmal b Rahat Ali 0(8)402/9
99.4FOURRahat Ali to Kyle Abbott, FOUR, magnificent shot, half volley from Rahat Ali, Abbott gets forward and drills it back past the non striker. No need to run for those399/8
99.3OUTRahat Ali to de Villiers, out Caught by Shafiq!! Terrific catch fom Shafiq at deep mid-wicket! This was banged in short by Rahat Ali, de Villiers went for the pull, he was hurried onto the shot and does not time it all that well. Shafiq ran back from deep mid-wicket, keeps his eyes on the ball and completes a fine catch even as he was tumbling backwards. A special catch to end a special innings. Rahat gets his 4th wicket. de Villiers c Shafiq b Rahat Ali 121(215) [4s-15]394/8
97.4FOURRahat Ali to de Villiers, FOUR, lovely shot from de Villiers, width from Ali, Villiers gets forward and crunches it square on the off-side, beats cover and races away to the fence for a boundary393/7

46.4OUTKyle Abbott to Younis Khan, out Lbw!! A seven wicket-haul on debut, how about that! Good length delivery on the leg stump, Younis Khan goes hard at a flick, misses and is struck plumb infront of the stumps, the umpire had no hesitation in his mind. Will they enforce the follow-on? Younis Khan lbw b Kyle Abbott 33(86) [4s-5]156/10
46.2FOURKyle Abbott to Younis Khan, leg byes, FOUR, a friendly check with the umpire by the South Africans as Younis Khan misses a flick on the leg stump, it flips the pads on its way to fine leg, anyway down the leg side156/9
44.4OUTKyle Abbott to Mohammad Irfan, out Caught by Elgar!! May be Ehsan Adil passed on a thing or two when he was walking in, becuase Mohammad Irfan has just done what he did! Another short of length delivery on the body, guides it straight to fourth slip, straight to the fielder again. Number 6 for Kyle Abbott. Mohammad Irfan c Elgar b Kyle Abbott 0(2)149/9
44.2OUTKyle Abbott to Ehsan Adil, out Caught by du Plessis!! Want some catching practice, rush to the Centurion now, Ehsan Adil is just so good at it! Short of a length delivery outside off stump, Ehsan Adil opens the face of the bat and guides it nowhere but straight down the throat of third slip. Five wickets on debut for Kyle Abbott. Ehsan Adil c du Plessis b Kyle Abbott 9(13) [4s-1]149/8
43.1FOURKleinveldt to Younis Khan, FOUR, gets on top of the short delivery that bounces extra than Younis Khan anticipated, contorls it well all along the ground it runs to square third man for a boundary146/7
41.4FOURKleinveldt to Ehsan Adil, FOUR, nicely done by Ehsan, short of a length and just outside off, Ehsan angles it with an open face and gets it past gully for a boundary139/7

78OUTPeterson to Rahat Ali, out Lbw!! South Africa complete the whitewash. This was a quicker ball from Peterson, pitches on middle and comes with the angle, Ali was caught on the backfoot as he looked to play it towards the onside. The impact was on the leg stump and was going on to shave it. The decision stays with the umpire and the test match is over. Rahat Ali lbw b Peterson 22(27) [4s-5]235/10
77.3FOURPeterson to Rahat Ali, byes, FOUR, that missed everything, this was slower and on the leg stump line, Ali has a heave and misses, so does de Villiers, the ball races away to the fence235/9
77.1FOURPeterson to Rahat Ali, FOUR, rank bad ball from Peterson, this was short and wide outside off, Rahat makes room and spanks it square on the off-side for a boundary231/9
76.5OTHERSteyn to Mohammad Irfan, no run, this was short and on the stumps, Irfan backs away and looks to pull, misses it and the ball goes off the shoulder through to the keeper227/9
74.4FOURSteyn to Rahat Ali, FOUR, edged and four! This was full and outside off, Ali made room and went hard on the drive, the edge goes over a leaping Smith at 1st slip224/9
74.1FOURSteyn to Rahat Ali, FOUR, ABD drops a tough chance, Steyn followed Rahat with a short one as he backed away, Ali went through with the pull and got a top edge, ABD leaps and only manages a finger tip on that, harsh to call it as a chance220/9
