Hermann c Phehlukwayo b Eshan Malinga 53(38) [4s-6 6s-1]

Mujeeb to Hermann, no run, Royals review for caught behind. UltraEdge shows a spike, but it has come off the pad. Looks to be heading down leg? Umpire's call on hitting and that means the Royals won't lose a review. Slower and drifts in from a shorter length, Hermann jumped on the back foot looking to pull and missed it completely. Got hit on the back pad and it wasn't far from the glove either. Not a bad review eventually from the Royals...

Wellalage to Hermann, FOUR, a bit too full outside off and Hermann drills it down the ground to bring up his first fifty in SA20 league. It has been an innings full of class and quality...

Wellalage to Hermann, FOUR, dragged short and Hermann is onto it in a flash. He sinks to one knee, rocks back and mauls the pull in the gap to the left of deep mid-wicket

Wellalage to Abell, out Caught by Eshan Malinga!! Wellalage has the last laugh. Drags the length back and bowls it wide of off, Abell goes for the cut and ends up slicing it off the outside half to the right of backward point. Malinga puts in a dive and takes the catch with great control. Abell c Eshan Malinga b Wellalage 9(11) [4s-1]

Wellalage to Abell, FOUR, goes for the reverse sweep and manages decent contact to get it over the fielder at short third. It was a premeditated stroke from Abell and he fetched it from just outside off...

Mujeeb to Hermann, 1 run, short outside off, tucked away to deep mid-wicket

Mujeeb to Hermann, FOUR, floats it a touch fuller just outside off, Hermann tries to push off the front foot and gets a thick outside edge that runs down the hill past the keeper to his left

Fortuin to Bedingham, out Caught by Rubin Hermann!! Both openers back in the hutch inside 5 overs. Bedingham looks to go big and slogs down the ground, skews it off the bottom half of the bat and gets more height than distance. Mid-on runs back and settles under the high ball.

Ngidi to Hermann, SIX, that was too easy! Short and angling down leg, Hermann helps it for a maximum with a cracking pull that goes flying over the fine leg fence

Fortuin to de Zorzi, out Caught by Phehlukwayo!! Got him. Once again de Zorzi looks to go after the width, but the ball gripped a touch and took the bottom half of the blade. Phehlukwayo at backward point did well to move across to his left and pouch it with both hands. de Zorzi c Phehlukwayo b Fortuin 8(8) [4s-1]

Fortuin to de Zorzi, FOUR, short and wide of off, de Zorzi jumps on the width and smacks it up and over cover to claim his first boundary
