FOUR! Risk taken, reward gained! Dug into the surface, just on off. Travis Head goes through the pull shot a bit early. Gets it off the toe end of the bat as the ball goes in the air but wide of mid-wicket and rolls to the fence for a boundary. 150 up for Australia.

Lizaad Williams To Travis Head
On a length and around off, Travis Head pushes it through covers for a single.
DRINKS! South Africa have finally managed to break the big opening stand, and will hope to build on it as they did in the first ODI. Australia have once again got the start in a big chase, but their middle order will need to avoid the mistakes they made in the previous game. It will be interesting to see how they handle the spinners this time around. Also, Cooper Connolly walks out to bat at number 3, and Lizaad Williams is back on the attack.

Bjorn Fortuin To Mitchell Marsh OUT!
OUT! BOWLED'EM! Bjorn Fortuin has the breakthrough South Africa were looking for. After five fairly loose deliveries, he gets the arm ball spot on, keeping it slightly short and aiming for middle stump as it skids on with the arm. Mitchell Marsh is caught in his crease and plays down the wrong line, allowing the ball to beat him and clip the back pad before crashing into the stumps. Australia are 130/1 in pursuit of 366.
