17.1 OUT! CAUGHT! The pyrotechnics from Heinrich Klaasen have come to an end as Josh Little sends him packing. This is dug in short and slower by Little, following the batter. Heinrich Klaasen tries to back and loft it over covers but gets hurried on. The ball flies off the outside edge and goes straight down the throat of the man at short third man.

The skipper, Andy Balbirnie settles under it and takes a simple catch. 178/6

5.5 OUT! TAKEN! A really good take from Aiden Markram and South Africa have the wicket they needed. Lungi Ngidi goes pace off now and serves it on a fullish length, outside off.
