Mark Adair to Gous, out Caught by Erasmus!! Both the openers are back in the hut cheaply! A shortish delivery on off, gets a bit big on Gous. He is hurried but still goes for the pull across the line and ends up top-edging it towards deep square leg. Erasmus is safe as houses. The short ball ploy has worked for Mark Adair. Gous c Erasmus b Mark Adair 11(9) [4s-2]
