8.4 | Botha to Marsh, 1 run, tossed up on middle stump, driven firmly down the ground | ||||||||||||||
JP actually needs some treatment here. First sighting of the magic spray for the South African season. | |||||||||||||||
8.3 | Botha to Marsh, no run, good stop at cover, it was another well-timed drive from Marsh who is ticking now. Duminy felt that | ||||||||||||||
8.2 | Botha to Marsh, FOUR, superb placement from Marsh as he drives through the off side after being offered width from Botha | ||||||||||||||
8.1 | Botha to Watson, 1 run, doesn't quite middle the pull this time and it rolls down to long on | ||||||||||||||
End of over 8 (17 runs) Australia 76/1 (71 runs required from 12 overs, RR: 9.50, RRR: 5.91)
| |||||||||||||||
7.6 | Peterson to Marsh, FOUR, dragged down short again, plenty of time for Marsh to whip it away through midwicket. This is running away from South Africa | ||||||||||||||
7.5 | Peterson to Marsh, FOUR, leaking runs very quickly now. Marsh steps back and cuts through backward point | ||||||||||||||
7.4 | Peterson to Watson, 1 run, touch of luck for the batsman as he gets an inside edge past the stumps but it's enough to take Watson to fifty from 34 balls | ||||||||||||||
7.3 | Peterson to Watson, 2 runs, short again, poor start from Peterson, and it's cut powerful through the covers and the cover sweeper is nearly beaten by the spin | ||||||||||||||
7.2 | Peterson to Watson, SIX, that has gone miles. Horrid ball, dragged down, and Watson dispatches it into the stands over long on | ||||||||||||||
7.1 | Peterson to Watson, no run, brilliant fielding to back up the bowler, David Miller at point stops a strong cut from Watson | ||||||||||||||
Robin Peterson with left-arm spin into the attack | |||||||||||||||
End of over 7 (8 runs) Australia 59/1 (88 runs required from 13 overs, RR: 8.42, RRR: 6.76)
| |||||||||||||||
6.6 | Botha to Watson, 1 run, swept powerfully out to deep square-leg | ||||||||||||||
6.5 | Botha to Watson, no run, flicked with a strong bottom hand from outside off but can't beat the bowler | ||||||||||||||
6.4 | Botha to Watson, no run, punched off the back foot out to midwicket | ||||||||||||||
6.3 | Botha to Watson, FOUR, nice paddle-sweep, he exposed all his stumps so good job he made contact and it raced away | ||||||||||||||
6.2 | Botha to Marsh, 1 run, not much turn for Botha, Marsh forces into the off side where backward point dives well | ||||||||||||||
6.1 | Botha to Marsh, 2 runs, cut away from around off stump out to the cover sweeper who makes a good save | ||||||||||||||
Spin into the attack with Johan Botha and he has a slip in place | |||||||||||||||
End of over 6 (15 runs) Australia 51/1 (96 runs required from 14 overs, RR: 8.50, RRR: 6.85)
| |||||||||||||||
Superb end to the Powerplay for the visitors and they are nicely on track so far | |||||||||||||||
5.6 | Theron to Watson, FOUR, that's just class. A perfect straight drive whistles back past the bowler to complete a productive over for Australia | ||||||||||||||
5.5 | Theron to Watson, FOUR, trying to make the most of the last few Powerplay deliveries, he fetches this from outside off and launches it high over mid-on | ||||||||||||||
5.4 | Theron to Watson, FOUR, terrific shot, just a hint of width from Theron and Watson unleashes a powerful square drive | ||||||||||||||
5.3 | Theron to Marsh, 1 run, opens the face and gets it down to third man | ||||||||||||||
5.2 | Theron to Watson, 1 run, drifting towards leg stump and it's flicked out to deep square | ||||||||||||||
5.1 | Theron to Marsh, 1 run, slower ball on the stumps, pushed into the off side and cover is fairly deep | ||||||||||||||
Juan 'Rusty' Theron into the attack | |||||||||||||||
End of over 5 (5 runs) Australia 36/1 (111 runs required from 15 overs, RR: 7.20, RRR: 7.40)
| |||||||||||||||
4.6 | Tsotsobe to Watson, no run, good comeback, bounces a touch and is awkward to defend as Watson comes forward | ||||||||||||||
4.5 | Tsotsobe to Watson, 4 leg byes, that's a shame, spoils the over as he slips outside leg stump and it takes the pad past the wicketkeeper | ||||||||||||||
