T Perera to de Kock, FOUR, in the air, dropped, but a very tough chance. Short ball again from Perera, de Kock advances and pulls but doesn't bother to keep it down, hits it high in the air, deep mid-wicket runs to his right, dives full length forward, but only manages to get his fingertips to it. That was a great effort though

Dushmantha Chameera to de Kock, leg byes, FOUR, short ball on the stumps, de Kock goes for the pull and misses, the ball hits the helmet and goes over the slip cordon. The South African team thought it came off the bat and were applauding that de Kock completed his fifty. Replays suggest that de Kock got a thin top edge on that. The square leg umpire suggested to Llong that it was leg byes. de Kock, while crossing ends, told Tucker that he hit that
