Sipamla to Jitesh Sharma, out Caught by Ottneil Baartman!! Whatever Markram told his bowler, it has worked! Full and straight on middle-leg, Jitesh Sharma looked to whip it away off his pads, was there to be hit to be honest but he closed the face of the bat a touch too early. It took the leading edge and shot straight up in the air. Two men were getting under it at backward point, eventually Linde bailed and Baartman held on. The communication happened in time and it was taken safely. South Africa strike another decisive blow. Jitesh Sharma c Ottneil Baartman b Sipamla 27(17) [4s-2 6s-2]

Sipamla to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR, edged and four! Short of a length on off-stump, Jitesh Sharma hung back and looked to run it down fine, opened the face of the bat and got it a lot finer than he would've wanted, just past the keeper but he gets four nonetheless
