James Neesham To Dewald Brevis OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! A soft, soft dismissal and things are spiralling down badly for the Proteas now. They needed Brevis to stay till the end, but he goes back. It’s right in the slot and Brevis goes hard at it, looking to smash it through covers. But it flies off the outside half of the bat instead of the middle. The timing isn’t quite there, and the ball spoons up tamely to cover. Santner moves across and takes a simple catch to his left. South Africa are 77/5.

James Neesham To Dewald Brevis
Hard length, on top of off, Brevis plays off the back foot and stabs it back to the bowler.
Halfway reached. South Africa are under serious pressure now as David Miller, who has a pretty strong batting average in Kolkata, also gone. It is now the test of their batting depth as Tristan Stubbs walks in at number 6. James Neesham (1-0-17-0) is also back into the attack, replacing Mitchell Santner.

Rachin Ravindra To David Miller OUT!
OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE THIS TIME! Daryl Mitchell makes no mistake. Glenn Phillips will be a relieved man. David Miller knew it as soon as he hit it. Brave from Ravindra to toss it up, but the line is a bit wide. Miller collapses his back knee and reaches out. He aims to go back over the bowler's head. Cuts across it and it is skied towards long off. Mitchell settles himself under the skier on the fence, where he stays side on and takes the catch to his left. Halfway through, South Africa are 4 down for 77. Wicket number 2 for Rachin.

Rachin Ravindra To Dewald Brevis
SIX! One-handed hit but it still goes back many a mile! Drifting in, fuller and on middle and leg. Brevis reaches out in front and swings through the line. He goes through with the shot as one hand comes off the handle and tonks it over wide long on for a biggie.

Rachin Ravindra To David Miller
DROPPED! Glenn Phillips did all the hard work but he has shelled it. Even he is human after all. Tossed up from over the wicket, full and outside off. Miller has a swing at it. Slices it off the outer half over cover. Phillips runs to his left in the deep and he gets there. He does not really need to hop but he does so. The ball hits him on the palm and drops to the ground before rolling away. The batters cross for a couple of runs.

Shorter and quicker, on off, Dewald hammers it to deep cover for another single.

Mitchell Santner To Dewald Brevis
This is slowed down and keeps it wide, on a length. Brevis lets it be, thinking it is a wide, but the ball sneaks inside the guideline.
Halt in play. Change of bat for Dewald Brevis. All good to continue.
