Fortuin to Erasmus, out Caught&Bowled!! .. they might have been shabby, but they've pulled off little pieces of magic every now and then. This is another top return catch from Fortuin - slower and drifting into the right-hander, Erasmus was looking to work it onto the on-side, closed the face of the bat and the leading edge popped back at the bowler - it was dropping in front of him, but Fortuin throws himself forward, gets both hands under and scoops up a beauty. Erasmus c and b Fortuin 21(21) [4s-3]
