90.5 to R MacDonald-Gay, cleaned up! Kapp strikes with the new ball. Full, angling in, goes straight on past the inside edge and into the top of middle-and-leg.. 391/8 | ||||||||||
| 12 | 3 | 40 | 2 | 3.33 | 57 | 7 | 0 | 2 | 0 | |
11.6 to TT Beaumont, short ball strikes! Hlubi bangs it in outside off, Beaumont swung across the line, didn't get hold ot it, but Luus at midwicket moved sharply to her left and clung on well in both hands. South Africa strike as the hour mark approaches. 53/1 91.3 to S Ecclestone, wide on the crease, cleans her up! Uses the crease well, shapes it back in off the seam, and bursts through Ecclestone who was looking to flick leg-side with no foot movement. Flicked the back hip on its way through. 395/9 | ||||||||||

27.3 to HC Knight, Huge appeal for lbw! Knight is toast! Ducking back in, pinned on the pads, Sekhukhune strikes a massive post-lunch blow. Knight looked aggrieved but even with DRS she'd have struggled to overturn that. Good nip and hits the inside half of the pad. 103/2 | ||||||||||
| 20 | 2 | 90 | 4 | 4.50 | 82 | 15 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
56.1 to ME Bouchier, slashed to slip! Mlaba tosses this up above the eyeline and finds some turn as Bouchier looks to go over mid-off. Thick outside edge, and a sharp take from Luus above her head. Mlaba roars in celebration. 277/3 62.1 to DN Wyatt, Wonderful delivery, takes the edge! That's a ripper, looped up from round the wicket, dipping and gripping on an off-stump line, drawing the hard-handed drive and taking the edge as it bites and straightens. Good take standing up, and South Africa have a post-tea boost. 299/4 82.3 to CE Dean, bowled her off an under-edge! The spinners are really starting to talk here! Dean got in a tangle as the ball got big on her, she was deep in her crease, playing with an angled bat, but the backspin took it off the face, into the pitch, and up into the stumps!. 368/6 84.4 to AE Jones, holed out to mid-off! Jones goes for broke, and is bankrupted! Good length, looking to launch it over the top, Kapp was halfway back to the rope and circled under it well. Mlaba has her fourth, and this pitch has come to life!. 371/7 | ||||||||||

36.2 to A Dercksen, snared at slip on the rebound, brilliant reflexes! Back of a length, trampoline bounce as Dercksen looks to flash it away on the cut but is cramped for room. The top edge flies high to Knight at second slip who can only parry it up, but Ecclestone is the first to react and pounces on the rebound! Big moment for England on the stroke of the interval, to change the mood of the session.. 113/2 82.1 to S Luus, you bet she can, snicked off! Attacking length, full and in the channel. Brings her forward on the drive, and there's appreciable movement away off the seam to take the edge. Jones does the rest, and England have the huge wicket of Luus. 259/6 | ||||||||||
| 13 | 2 | 49 | 4 | 3.76 | 61 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
7.3 to A Bosch, finds the edge, England have the breakthrough! Bell dangles it in the channel, tempting Bosch with a hint of lift on a fifth-stump line, a feathered edge to Jones and England are in the mix. 21/1 85.2 to CL Tryon, chipped straight to mid-on, soft as a kitten's fur! Nothing shot from Tryon, looking to work it away through the leg side. Fullish, sliding onto the pads, and probably deserves to be whipped away for four. But Tryon mistimed it horribly, lofting tamely into the leg side, and Beaumont pouched it. 271/7 87.2 to S Jafta, clonk! Off stump is pegged back, and Bell has a third. Jafta's feet are rooted to the crease as she plays airily at this, leaving a big gap between bat and pad for Bell's fullish ball to sneak through as it nips back off the seam and pings into the top of off. 278/8 87.3 to N Mlaba, ping! Middle stump goes flying this time! Mlaba backs away, looking to create some room and flash hard through the off side. But she misses and Bell hits, the outswinger ripping middle stump out of the ground. Bell has four, and is on a hat-trick.... 278/9 | ||||||||||

44.5 to L Wolvaardt, thumped on the pads and Wolvaardt has to go! She is utterly livid at that dismissal, and the gestures imply an inside-edge! No DRS, so no recourse. It was a tighter line, attacking middle and finding the knee-roll, but all the signs point to an injustice!. 138/3 | ||||||||||
| 7.4 | 1 | 25 | 1 | 3.26 | 33 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
88.4 to A Hlubi, smashed on the back pad, up goes the finger! That looked absolutely stone-dead. Fullish outswinger, beat the defensive push, and looked like to be crashing into the top of the stumps. 281/10 | ||||||||||
| 15 | 4 | 50 | 2 | 3.33 | 65 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
73.6 to M Kapp, pins back the off stump! Ryana MacDonald-Gay has her maiden Test wicket, and it's a beauty! She was probing the wicket-to-wicket line, and this one just gripped enough to wriggle around Kapp's loose drive. Superb ball to end a mighty knock. 237/4 75.2 to N de Klerk, snorter from MacDonald-Gay! Skids through from back of a length, relentless line on the top of off, de Klerk plays back and snicks off, Jones up to the stumps grabs the edge with glee!. 237/5 | ||||||||||

5.2 to ME Bouchier, snicked off this time, a 19-ball duck for Bouchier! A brilliant hundred on her first day as a Test cricketer and a painful innings on her second. Top work from Hlubi, using the crease to angle this in before it nipped away just a touch off the seam. Kisses the outside edge and Jafta takes the catch. South Africa strike early. 3/1 | ||||||||||

36.1 to Nat Sciver-Brunt, chopped on! Mlaba gets the wicket she was after. Dropped on 19, Sciver-Brunt falls for 37 four overs later. She was shaping to cut but this ball kept lowish, and skewed onto the stumps via the bottom edge. 109/3 55.2 to AE Jones, hacked high off a leading edge! Jones took the cue and tried to step up the tempo, but she was hitting across the line and Wolvaardt was on hand in the covers to pocket the swirling chance. You sense from that stroke that England won't be batting much longer. 182/5 57.6 to CE Dean, scooped up diving forward! Dean's unconvincing stay ends with a loose flick up into the leg-sided ball, Sekhukhune sprawled forward at short midwicket and got her fingers under the looping chance. Mlaba has seven in the match. 188/6 67.5 to S Ecclestone, huge appeal on the sweep! Ecclestone almost started walking as she stood up from her stance. Wicket-to-wicket line, mistimed her stroke across the line. That is eight in the match for Mlaba!. 224/7 69.1 to HC Knight, pinned on the pad sweeping, Knight falls for 90! Full, drifting into the pad with a hint of turn away. It looked tight live, but with no DRS, Knight has no choice but to walk off. Mlaba has five, and nine in the match!. 229/8 71.5 to R MacDonald-Gay, bursts through the gate, Mlaba has 10! The first 10-wicket match haul by a South African woman. She was underused on the first day after two expensive overs but has underlined has class ever since. Tossed up, drifts into the gap between bat and pad, and crashes into the stumps. 232/9 | ||||||||||

19.4 to TT Beaumont, massive appeal, stone-dead with the inswinger! That's magnificent bowling, Beaumont's bat comes across her front pad as she seeks to defend, but the ball thuds juicily into her knee-roll. South Africa have their incision. 42/2 43.4 to DN Wyatt, sliced to short third! Wyatt-Hodge throws her head back in frustration. Nadine de Klerk and Sekhukhune had a discussion after the second ball of this over about Wyatt-Hodge's penchant for slicing the ball away behind point, and she fell right into their trap. Just a hint of width, good length outside off stump, and flashed hard to Bosch who pouched a sharp chance. 140/4 | ||||||||||

74.1 to L Filer, shimmies down, but whips straight to short midwicket! Uses her feet and looks to loft over the leg side, but picks out the fielder to present a simple chance. 236/10 | ||||||||||

2.6 to L Wolvaardt, nips back a mile, and smacks Wolvaardt on the pad. Up goes the finger! Wolvaardt was camped on the back foot to a good length ball that kept low and zipped back in off the seam. Trapped on the back leg, and after copping a shocker in the first innings, Wolvaardt can't have too many arguments with the decision in the second. 8/1 8.5 to A Dercksen, flicked up to bat-pad! England are adamant there's an inside-edge! The umpires are going upstairs to check it... which is intriguing, given there is no DRS. This is very much an umpire review, but there's no doubt it has carried to Beaumont under the lid at short leg, she pouched it at chest-height. Was umpire Klasste unsighted? Not sure how she could have been. Dercksen shook her head as soon as the ball looped up, she was sure there was no inside-edge. And the verdict is out! This has rumpus written all over it!. 22/3 10.2 to S Luus, pings the top of off stump! That is a wonderful length, and South Africa are in tatters! Bell hits the pitch hard outside off, finds a hint of movement back through a gaping gate. Rattles the pole, and this contest is ending in a hurry now. 31/4 14.5 to S Jafta, pinned on the pads, another one bites the dust! Fuller length from Bell, she's got her inswinger cooking at the moment, tails in at Jafta's pads, and there's really not much doubt about that one, as the keeper misses her loose waft across the line. 44/7 | ||||||||||

5.2 to A Bosch, trapped on the pad, and triggered! Bosch can't believe she's been given out. Wide on the crease, back of a length and keeps low to hit the front pad. It looked to the naked eye as though it might have been sliding past leg stump, but umpire Agenbag thought otherwise and there's no DRS to save her!. 12/2 | ||||||||||
| 4.4 | 3 | 7 | 2 | 1.50 | 25 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
13.4 to CL Tryon, huge appeal, no stroke offered, up goes the finger! A shocker from Tryon, misjudging the fuller length as the armball swung in. Was struck outside the line, but with no shot offered, the only thing that mattered was whether the stumps would have been broken. Would have been clipping off, by the looks of it, but another marginal call!. 33/6 17.4 to M Kapp, that's a stunning grab at silly point! Ecclestone forces Kapp onto the back foot, finds some extra lift into the shoulder of the bat, and Beaumont under the lid flings herself forward, scooping the ball off the turf, inches from the crease! Ecclestone hasn't conceded a run yet, and now she's grabbed her second wicket!. 44/8 | ||||||||||
