12 OUT! CAUGHT! THAT'S A GOOD CATCH IN THE DEEP BY Ben Cutting! JJ Smuts' wonderful knock comes to an end! Slower length ball, wide outside off, JJ Smuts walks across a touch and plays the pull to the left of deep mid-wicket, where Ben Cutting runs to his left and covers a lot of ground and takes a nice catch in the end as the ball narly popped out of his hands when his knee got stuck into the ground. 124/2

2 OUT! CAUGHT! Peter Siddle has got the big fish! A very full delivery, on middle, AB de Villiers looks to drive it on the up. He doesn't get underneath the length of the ball and hence doesn't get the required elevation to clear the mid on fielder. As a result of which he ends up playing it in the air, to the left of mid on, who takes two steps to his left and picks up a pretty good catch, because the ball was travelling. D'Arcy Short is the fielder there. 13/1

15.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Full and straight this time from Brett Lee, Morne van Wyk hangs back to get under the ball and loft it away. However, the ball gets too close and van Wyk ends up hitting it flat down to long on. Peter Siddle nearly fumbles a simple catch but hangs on. End of a top knock from van Wyk as he departs for 76 (35). 158/4

13.4 OUT! BOWLED! D'Arcy Short has his man! Tossed up delivery, turning in on off, Sarel Erwee skips down the track to loft this over long off and misses as the ball hits the off pole. 137/3

18.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Excellently judged in the deep by Callum Ferguson. Tossed up, on a shortish length, JP Duminy pulls it away towards deep mid-wicket. The ball seems to be sailing over the fielder but Ferguson extends his hands up and pouches it nicely whilst managing to keep his balance and stay inside the ropes. South Africa Champions are now 182/5 in 18.5 overs. 182/5

19.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Wicket number 3 of the over for Peter Siddle! Again the leg cutter doing the trick. A full-length leg cutter, just outside off, Henry Davids sits on one knee and looks to scoop it over short fine leg, but there is no pace on the ball as it goes up in the air and ends up going into the hands of short fine leg, where Brett Lee takes an easy catch. 186/8

19.2 OUT! BOWLED! Peter Siddle has his second! Length ball that seams in, Wayne Parnell again looks to skip down the track and looks to push at the ball and misses. The ball sneaks through his bat pad gap to hit the off pole. 185/6

19.3 OUT! BOWLED! TWO IN TWO FOR Peter Siddle! Now the leg cutter that lands on the fuller length, on middle leg, Hardus Viljoen, swings through the line and misses as the ball sneaks through the bat pad gap and crashes into the furniture. 185/7

8 OUT! CAUGHT! Wayne Parnell gets rid of the second Aussie opener now and Australia Champions are 2 down for 71. Parnell digs it in a bit short and bowls it over off, Shaun Marsh rocks back to pull and gets a decent piece of it as well but hits it straight down the throat of the fielder at cow corner. Hardus Viljoen makes no mistake and another sluggish knock from Marsh comes to an end. 71/2

4.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Wayne Parnell has the big wicket! What a catch by AB de Villiers! Full on middle leg, Chris Lynn lofts this one over the bowler's head. The ball goes to the right of mid on, where AB de Villiers is stationed. He runs to his right and gets to the ball in time as he puts in a slide to take the catch. 45/1

15.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Another slower ball from Hardus Viljoen, bowling it fractionally short and into the batter. D'Arcy Short looks to pick it up and pull it over deep mid-wicket but doesn't get enough on it. Aaron Phangiso moves slightly to his left and comes in a bit to complete a simple catch. Short departs for 33 (29) and Australia Champions are 130/4. 130/4

11.2 OUT! BOWLED! Duanne Olivier gets the breakthrough. Slower yorker on middle off, Ben Dunk is perhaps done by the change of pace and the length of the ball as he swings across the line and misses. The ball sneaks through the bat pad gap and crashes into the sticks. Replays show that it just clipped the pad first before hitting the stumps. 97/3

18 OUT! TIMBER! Alive and kicking! Full and fast from Hardus Viljoen, nails it right at the base of the off stump. Ben Cutting sets deep in the crease to go big but is beaten for pace and the ball sneaks past the willow to smash into the off stump. Still, 13 runs off the over. 21 needed now off 12 balls. 166/5

18.5 OUT! LBW! Imran Tahir comes back in and turns the tide for his side. Goes full and straight, spearing it in, Callum Ferguson is very deep in the crease and can't lay a bat on it as the ball smashes into the back leg. A huge appeal and up goes the finger from the umpire after which Tahir celebrates wildly. 171/6

20 OUT! Nathan Coulter-Nile is RUN OUT! What a finish! Ice in his veins and AB de Villiers has done it for his team, a save earlier in the over and now, a telling throw that takes South Africa Champions into the Final. Full and right at the toes, Dan Christian comes down the track and jams it into the turf, down to long on. The batters push hard for two and Coulter-Nile tries his best to get back but ABD fires in a perfect throw at the bowling end where Wayne Parnell collects it just before he dislodges the bails and the replays do confirm that he had the ball in hand when the bails came off. Heartbreak for Australia and Dan Christian, who gave it his all and remained unbeaten on 49. South Africa Champions WIN BY 1 RUN! 185/7
