2.6 to RR Hendricks, timber! Farooqi angles one in from around the wicket, this is on a length around sixth or seventh stump. Hendricks has a loose prod at it with the bat so far away from the pad that a truck could've driven through it. He gets an inside edge onto the stumps, and Hendricks's woeful recent run continues.. 17/1
4.6 to AK Markram, another inside edge on to the stumps! Slower ball from Farooqi, but that's just poor technique from Markram. You need to present a straight bat on this wicket with its variable pace and bounce. Just like Hendricks, Markram too hangs his bat out wide without much movement of his feet, and plays it on to his stumps. Farooqi has two early on and South Africa are in some early strife here. 24/2
6.2 to T de Zorzi, Farooqi has three and South Africa are in all sorts! Another nothing shot this. Short of a length from Farooqi, de Zorzi goes for the full-blooded pull shot. He aimed for over midwicket, but the top edge just ballooned straight up in the air and into the hands of Shahidi at mid-on. 25/3
32.2 to PWA Mulder, Farooqi magic does it for Afghanistan! Runs in from around the stumps and lands it on a length on off, Mulder goes for the punch away from the body. The ball stays a tad low and sneaks in past the inside edge and makes a mess of the stumps. In fact, on another look, it seems like Mulder was done in by the pace than lack of bounce. It did bounce nicely. A four-for for Farooqi and finally, Afghanistan have seen the back of a stubborn batter. 105/9

7.1 to T Stubbs, Ghazanfar has his first wicket, and Stubbs has to go for a duck! Length ball on off stump, turns away from Stubbs who was looking to push it towards mid-off. The outside edge hits Gurbaz's pad before settling in Nabi's hands at first slip. 29/4
7.6 to JF Smith, Brilliant bowling! Brilliant variations. Smith was all at sea and now sees his stumps rattled! This one pitches outside off just short of a good length, turns back in and beats Smith's attempted punch into the offside and rearranges the timber.. 29/5
9.2 to K Verreynne, Given out LBW! Verreynne really didn't have an idea which way the ball would turn. It was a length ball pitching outside off and turning sharply back in. Verreynne is beaten on the inside edge and the ball hits him in front of middle stump. He's reviewed it though... There's no inside edge, in fact there was daylight between bat and ball, and hawkeye shows it would've clipped leg stump. So umpire's call it is, and Verreynne has to go too.. 36/6

23.2 to BC Fortuin, This time Rashid hits the woodwork! That's a superb delivery, typical Rashid. Draws Fortuin forward with a good length ball just outside off stump, and then gets it to turn right through the gate and on to off stump as Fortuin attempted a big drive. 75/8
33.3 to L Ngidi, Trapped in front? Ngidi reviews immediately. The googly on a shorter length outside off, skids in with the turn. Ngidi goes back to flick but is hurried on and hit flush on the front pad. Three reds and South Africa are bowled out for 106. 106/10

0.3 to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Gurbaz's adventurousness costs him! South Africa strike early. He sees another length ball from Ngidi, it moves away just a touch. Gurbaz looks to go over the off side but because of the movement, he is turned inside out and slices the loft via the outside edge. It flies down deep third's throat where debutant Smith makes no mistake in reverse-cupping that. South Africa are pumped up, Gurbaz is massively dejected. 0/1

7.6 to Rahmat Shah, Fortune favours Fortuin! Or does it? Rahmat opts for the review. He saw the flighted full ball and looked to play the sweep. It then lobbed off the back leg that was in front of the stumps. The only question seems to be if he got some bat on to it. He had a chat before taking the review, which suggested he wasn't entirely sure. Nothing on the Snicko either. Three reds and Rahmat takes a review back with him. 15/2
13.4 to Riaz Hassan, Riaz has thrown it away. He gives Fortuin the charge and looks to deposit one over the straight boundary, this was the arm ball from Fortuin and went through past Riaz's inside edge to hit the stumps. 38/3

17.6 to Hashmatullah Shahidi, Trapped in front. Markram fires a quicker one on length on middle, Shahidi goes back to flick it away but misses and is struck on the front pad. Height does not seem to be a factor. Hitting top of middle, Shahidi is gone and so is Afghanistan's second review. 60/4
