Kuldeep Yadav to Mulder, out Lbw!! That's plumb in front as he misses the reverse-sweep. They get together for a chat and Mulder takes the review in the nick of time. Timer was about to run out there. Would've been better for South Africa if the timer had indeed run out because this is crashing into middle as per ball-tracking. Waste of a review. Over the wicket, turning in off a good length, he misses the reverse-sweep and is struck dead in front. There was no doubt about it the moment it hit the pad. Mulder lbw b Kuldeep Yadav 24(51) [4s-3]
